  - Net::IMAP implements Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) client functionality in Ruby. Prior to 0.6.5
    and 0.5.15, several Net::IMAP commands accept a raw string argument which is only validated to prevent
    CRLF injection and then sent verbatim. If this string is derived from user-controlled input, an attacker
    can force the next command to be absorbed as a continuation of the first command. This will cause the
    first command to eventually fail, but also prevents it from returning until another command is sent (from
    another thread). That other command will not return until the connection is closed. This vulnerability is
    fixed in 0.6.5 and 0.5.15. (CVE-2026-47241)

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