  - Vulnerability in Oracle Java SE (component: 2D). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE:
    25.0.4 and 26.0.2. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access
    via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result
    in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Oracle Java SE.
    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-2026-70906)

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