"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.

  - HAProxy 3.2 before 3.4.6 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause a denial of service (worker-
    thread CPU exhaustion) via a truncated HTTP/2 PING frame. h2c_handle_ping in src/mux_h2.c does not check
    for a short read, unlike the other H2 frame handlers. Because the incomplete frame cannot be processed,
    its data is never consumed, and the H2 multiplexer tasklet is repeatedly woken by that pending data
    without making progress. The CPU spins until timeout http-request closes the connection, and an attacker
    opening many such connections can sustain high CPU usage. (CVE-2026-110353)
