"The AlmaLinux 9.6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.6:CLSA-2025:1751550314 advisory.

  - Issue summary: Clients using RFC7250 Raw Public Keys (RPKs) to authenticate a server may fail to notice
    that the server was not authenticated, because handshakes don't abort as expected when the SSL_VERIFY_PEER
    verification mode is set. Impact summary: TLS and DTLS connections using raw public keys may be vulnerable
    to man-in-middle attacks when server authentication failure is not detected by clients. RPKs are disabled
    by default in both TLS clients and TLS servers. The issue only arises when TLS clients explicitly enable
    RPK use by the server, and the server, likewise, enables sending of an RPK instead of an X.509 certificate
    chain. The affected clients are those that then rely on the handshake to fail when the server's RPK fails
    to match one of the expected public keys, by setting the verification mode to SSL_VERIFY_PEER. Clients
    that enable server-side raw public keys can still find out that raw public key verification failed by
    calling SSL_get_verify_result(), and those that do, and take appropriate action, are not affected. This
    issue was introduced in the initial implementation of RPK support in OpenSSL 3.2. The FIPS modules in 3.4,
    3.3, 3.2, 3.1 and 3.0 are not affected by this issue. (CVE-2024-12797)

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