"The AlmaLinux 9.6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.6:CLSA-2026:1782221091 advisory.

  - lldpd is an implementation of IEEE 802.1ab (LLDP). Prior to version 1.0.22, lldpd_decode() in
    src/daemon/lldpd.c strips 802.1Q VLAN tags from received Ethernet frames by calling memmove() to shift the
    frame payload 4 bytes left. The third argument (byte count) is s - 2 * ETHER_ADDR_LEN but should be s - 2
    * ETHER_ADDR_LEN - 4, causing a 4-byte heap buffer over-read past the malloc(h_mtu) allocation when the
    received frame size equals the interface MTU. This issue has been patched in version 1.0.22.
    (CVE-2026-46433)

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