"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- A vulnerability relating to incorrect access control in OpenNebula by OpenNebula Systems, affecting all
versions prior to 7.4. This vulnerability could allow an authenticated user with basic permissions to
execute commands on virtual machines belonging to other users via the `one.vm.exec` function, without
proper verification of access permissions. To exploit the vulnerability, it is only necessary to know the
virtual machine's identifier and for qemu-agent to be enabled on that machine. Exploitation could allow
commands to be executed and compromise the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the affected
virtual machines. (CVE-2026-84165)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
