"The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS / 25.10 / 26.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8414-1 advisory.

    Frank Buss discovered that OpenSSL had a heap buffer over-read in ASN.1 content parsing. An attacker could
    possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or obtain sensitive
    information. (CVE-2026-34180)

    Pavol Zacik and Alex Gaynor discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly accepted PKCS#12 files with short HMAC
    keys when using PBMAC1. An attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass integrity checks. This issue
    only affected Ubuntu 25.10 and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-34181)

    Asim Viladi Oglu Manizada and Alex Gaynor discovered that OpenSSL could accept forged CMS
    AuthEnvelopedData messages. An attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass message authentication
    checks. (CVE-2026-34182)

    Abhinav Agarwal discovered that OpenSSL had unbounded memory growth in the QUIC PATH_CHALLENGE handler. A
    remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to use excessive resources, leading to a
    denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 25.10 and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-34183)

    Sunwoo Lee, Hyuk Lim, and Seunghyun Yoon discovered that OpenSSL had a NULL pointer dereference in QUIC
    server initial packet handling. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash,
    resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 25.10 and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS.
    (CVE-2026-42764)

    Mayank Jangid, Kushal Khemka, Hari Priandana, Bhabani Sankar Das, and Qifan Zhang discovered that OpenSSL
    had a possible NULL dereference in password- based CMS decryption. An attacker could possibly use this
    issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-42766)

    Zhanpeng Liu, Guannan Wang, and Guancheng Li discovered that OpenSSL had a NULL pointer dereference in
    CRMF EncryptedValue decryption. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash,
    resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-42767)

    Alex Gaynor discovered that OpenSSL had a Bleichenbacher oracle in CMS_decrypt() and PKCS7_decrypt() with
    multiple RecipientInfo values. An attacker could possibly use this issue to obtain sensitive information.
    This issue only affected Ubuntu 25.10 and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-42768)

    Alex Gaynor discovered that OpenSSL had a trust-anchor substitution issue in CMP rootCaKeyUpdate
    processing. An attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass certificate trust validation. This issue
    only affected Ubuntu 25.10 and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-42769)

    Alex Gaynor discovered that OpenSSL used attacker-supplied parameters when validating FFC-DH peers. An
    attacker could possibly use this issue to weaken key validation and compromise security guarantees.
    (CVE-2026-42770)

    Alex Gaynor discovered that OpenSSL could ignore the IV in AES-OCB mode on the EVP_Cipher() path. An
    attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass cryptographic protections and obtain sensitive
    information. (CVE-2026-45445)

    Alex Gaynor discovered that OpenSSL had incorrect tag processing for empty messages in AES-GCM-SIV and
    AES-SIV modes. An attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass cryptographic integrity checks.
    (CVE-2026-45446)

    Thai Duong discovered that OpenSSL had a heap use-after-free in PKCS7_verify(). An attacker could possibly
    use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2026-45447)

    Zehua Qiao and Jinwen He discovered that OpenSSL had a possible heap buffer overflow in ASN.1 multibyte
    string conversion. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a
    denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-7383)

    Bhabani Sankar Das discovered that OpenSSL had an out-of-bounds read in CMS password-based decryption. An
    attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
    (CVE-2026-9076)
