  - Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of
    Oracle Java SE (component: Security). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 8u461,
    8u461-perf, 11.0.28, 17.0.16, 21.0.8, 25; Oracle GraalVM for JDK: 17.0.16 and 21.0.8; Oracle GraalVM
    Enterprise Edition: 21.3.15. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with
    network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM
    Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion
    or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM
    Enterprise Edition accessible data. Note: This vulnerability can be exploited by using APIs in the
    specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs. This vulnerability also
    applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or
    sandboxed Java applets, that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and
    rely on the Java sandbox for security. (CVE-2025-53057)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
