"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- An unrecovered panic in the event stream header decoder in Amazon AWS SDK for Go v2 before
release-2026-03-23 might allow an unauthenticated remote actor to terminate the consuming application
process via a crafted event stream response frame containing a header value type outside the valid range.
To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to release-2026-03-23 or later, and patch any forked or
derivative code. (CVE-2026-89090)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
