"The CentOS Linux 8.5 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TuxCare
CENTOS8.5:CLSA-2025:1742723010 advisory.

  - The openssl_private_decrypt function in PHP, when using PKCS1 padding (OPENSSL_PKCS1_PADDING, which is the
    default), is vulnerable to the Marvin Attack unless it is used with an OpenSSL version that includes the
    changes from this pull request: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/13817
    (rsa_pkcs1_implicit_rejection). These changes are part of OpenSSL 3.2 and have also been backported to
    stable versions of various Linux distributions, as well as to the PHP builds provided for Windows since
    the previous release. All distributors and builders should ensure that this version is used to prevent PHP
    from being vulnerable. PHP Windows builds for the versions 8.1.29, 8.2.20 and 8.3.8 and above include
    OpenSSL patches that fix the vulnerability. (CVE-2024-2408)

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