"The CentOS Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
TuxCare CENTOS7:CLSA-2026:1783884048 advisory.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: usb: pegasus: validate USB
    endpoints The pegasus driver should validate that the device it is probing has the proper number and types
    of USB endpoints it is expecting before it binds to it. If a malicious device were to not have the same
    urbs the driver will crash later on when it blindly accesses these endpoints. (CVE-2026-23290)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rtmutex: Use waiter::task instead of
    current in remove_waiter() remove_waiter() is used by the slowlock paths, but it is also used for proxy-
    lock rollback in rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock() when invoked from futex_requeue(). In the latter case
    waiter::task is not current, but remove_waiter() operates on current for the dequeue operation. That
    results in several problems: 1) the rbtree dequeue happens without waiter::task::pi_lock being held 2) the
    waiter task's pi_blocked_on state is not cleared, which leaves a dangling pointer primed for UAF around.
    3) rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain() operates on the wrong top priority waiter task Use waiter::task instead of
    current in all related operations in remove_waiter() to cure those problems. [ tglx: Fixup
    rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain(), add a comment and amend the changelog ] (CVE-2026-43499)

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