"The CentOS Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
TuxCare CENTOS-STREAM8:CLSA-2026:1781101271 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in Samba's certificate auto-enrollment Group Policy handling. When certificate auto-
    enrollment is enabled, Samba may retrieve a CA certificate over an unencrypted HTTP connection and install
    it into the local trust store without proper verification. An attacker with the ability to intercept or
    redirect network traffic could exploit this behavior to supply a malicious certificate authority
    certificate, potentially allowing interception or spoofing of trusted communications. (CVE-2026-3012)

  - A flaw was found in Samba. A remote attacker can exploit a misconfiguration in Samba file servers and
    classic domain controllers that use the check password script feature. If this script is configured with
    the %u substitution character, the client-controlled username is passed without proper escaping of shell
    meta-characters. This vulnerability allows an attacker to achieve remote command execution on the affected
    system. This issue primarily affects non-standard configurations where the check password script is used
    with %u and the samba-dcerpcd service is started as a system service. (CVE-2026-4408)

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