"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- Rack is a modular Ruby web server interface. In versions prior to 2.2.19, 3.1.17, and 3.2.2,
`Rack::Multipart::Parser` can accumulate unbounded data when a multipart part's header block never
terminates with the required blank line (`CRLFCRLF`). The parser keeps appending incoming bytes to memory
without a size cap, allowing a remote attacker to exhaust memory and cause a denial of service (DoS).
Attackers can send incomplete multipart headers to trigger high memory use, leading to process termination
(OOM) or severe slowdown. The effect scales with request size limits and concurrency. All applications
handling multipart uploads may be affected. Versions 2.2.19, 3.1.17, and 3.2.2 cap per-part header size
(e.g., 64 KiB). As a workaround, restrict maximum request sizes at the proxy or web server layer (e.g.,
Nginx `client_max_body_size`). (CVE-2025-61772)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
