"The version of IBM WebSphere Application Server running on the remote host is affected by a vulnerability as referenced
in the 7295372 advisory.
- Allocation of resources without limits or throttling (CWE-770) during Java object deserialization in
Google Guava versions 4.0 through 33.7.1 allows an attacker to cause a Denial of Service via
OutOfMemoryError. When deserializing CompactHashMap, CompactHashSet, or MapMakerInternalMap instances,
Guava eagerly allocates an array based on a caller-specified size parameter without throttling, permitting
memory exhaustion from crafted serialization streams. (CVE-2026-102554)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
