"The Rocky Linux 9.6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.6:CLSA-2026:1787230282 advisory.
- When dovecot has been configured to use per-domain passwd files, and they are placed one path component
above /etc, or slash has been added to allowed characters, path traversal can happen if the domain
component is directory partial. This allows inadvertently reading /etc/passwd (or some other path which
ends with passwd). If this file contains passwords, it can be used to authenticate wrongly, or if this is
userdb, it can unexpectly make system users appear valid users. Upgrade to fixed version, or use different
authentication scheme that does not rely on paths. Alternatively you can also ensure that the per-domain
passwd files are in some other location, such as /etc/dovecot/auth/%d. No publicly available exploits are
known. (CVE-2026-0394)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
