"The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2026:1790730632 advisory.

  - GStreamer OGG File Parsing Stack-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This
    vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GStreamer.
    User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page
    or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of OGG files. The issue results from
    the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a stack-based
    buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.
    Was ZDI-CAN-29584. (CVE-2026-18297)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in GStreamer's RTSP support library. The vulnerability occurs
    while parsing an Authorization or WWW-Authenticate header that uses Digest authentication. Specially
    crafted whitespace placement around a parameter's terminator can cause an internal length calculation to
    underflow, leading to a crash of the process parsing the header. On an RTSP server this can be triggered
    by a remote, unauthenticated attacker sending a single malformed request when the server has
    authentication enabled; the same flaw can also be triggered against an RTSP client by a malicious or
    compromised RTSP server. Successful exploitation results in a denial of service (application crash) and
    has no confirmed impact on confidentiality or integrity. (CVE-2026-85150)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
