"The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS / 25.10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8020-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that libsoup did not correctly handle certain URL-decoded input, which could allow for
    HTTP header injection. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or
    execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-1467, CVE-2026-1536)

    It was discovered that libsoup did not correctly handle removal of the Proxy-Authorization header. A
    remote attacker could possibly use this issue to leak sensitive information. (CVE-2026-1539)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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