ALMALINUX9.6:CLSA-2026:1785755669 advisory.

  - In PHP versions 8.1.* before 8.1.31, 8.2.* before 8.2.26, 8.3.* before 8.3.14, uncontrolled long string
    inputs to ldap_escape() function on 32-bit systems can cause an integer overflow, resulting in an out-of-
    bounds write. (CVE-2024-8932)

  - Improper escaping of backslashes in attacker-provided parameters would allow for trivial SQL injection in
    PHP versions from 8.2.* before 8.2.33, from 8.3.* before 8.3.33, from 8.4.* before 8.4.24, and from 8.5.*
    before 8.5.9. (CVE-2026-17543)

  - Circular symbolic links in phar archives could lead to unbounded recursion, exhausting the C stack and
    crashing the PHP process, in PHP versions from 8.2.* before 8.2.33, from 8.3.* before 8.3.33, from 8.4.*
    before 8.4.24, and from 8.5.* before 8.5.9. (CVE-2026-7260)

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