"The AlmaLinux 9.6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.6:CLSA-2026:1771602192 advisory.
- A flaw was identified in the NTLM authentication handling of the libsoup HTTP library, used by GNOME and
other applications for network communication. When processing extremely long passwords, an internal size
calculation can overflow due to improper use of signed integers. This results in incorrect memory
allocation on the stack, followed by unsafe memory copying. As a result, applications using libsoup may
crash unexpectedly, creating a denial-of-service risk. (CVE-2026-0719)
- A flaw was found in libsoup. This stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability occurs during the parsing of
multipart HTTP responses due to an incorrect length calculation. A remote attacker can exploit this by
sending a specially crafted multipart HTTP response, which can lead to memory corruption. This issue may
result in application crashes or arbitrary code execution in applications that process untrusted server
responses, and it does not require authentication or user interaction. (CVE-2026-1761)
- A flaw was found in libsoup. An unsigned integer underflow in the soup_filter_input_stream_read_until()
function causes a heap buffer over-read when parsing multipart HTTP responses. A malicious HTTP server can
exploit this by sending a crafted multipart response, potentially causing the client application to crash
or disclose sensitive heap memory. (CVE-2026-66337)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
