"The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 25.10 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in
the USN-8025-1 advisory.

    Kevin Jones discovered that the System.Security.Cryptography.Cose component in .NET did not properly
    handle certain missing special elements in input data. An attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass
    security checks and gain unauthorized access or perform data manipulation.

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

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