"According to its self-reported version, the remote device is running Wind River VxWorks 7 prior to release 26.09. It
is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - In Wind River VxWorks 7 prior to 26.09, specific system call arguments can result in memory corruption within the
    memory management subsystem. (CVE-2026-102004)

  - In Wind River VxWorks 7 prior to 26.09, specific system call arguments can result in the process management
    subsystem failing to properly release allocated kernel memory before terminating the calling application.
    (CVE-2026-102006)

  - In Wind River VxWorks 7 prior to 26.09, specific system call arguments can result in the IPNET subsystem failing to
    properly release allocated kernel memory and system file descriptors before terminating the calling application.
    (CVE-2026-97686)

Note that Nessus cannot determine the VxWorks 7 release designation (for example 26.09) from the detected operating
system version, so an affected release cannot be distinguished from one that already includes the fix. This finding is
therefore reported as a potential vulnerability.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the OS version.");
