A flaw was found in gix-date. The `gix_date::parse::TimeBuf::as_str` function can generate strings containing invalid non-UTF8 characters. This issue violates the internal safety invariants of the `TimeBuf` component, leading to undefined behavior when these malformed strings are subsequently processed. This could potentially result in application instability or other unforeseen consequences.

The remote Fedora 45 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2026-a843eb2666 advisory.

    Update gix to version 0.83

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of rust installed on the remote host is prior to 1.94.0-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2026-3246 advisory.

    A flaw in the gix-date library can generate invalid non-UTF8 strings, leading to undefined behavior when     processed. The most likely impact from a successful attack is to data integrity, by the malicious data     being able to corrupt data being hold in memory and to system availability as it eventually may lead to     the software using the gix_date library to crash. (CVE-2026-0810)

    tar-rs is a tar archive reading/writing library for Rust. Versions 0.4.44 and below have conditional logic     that skips the PAX size header in cases where the base header size is nonzero. As part of CVE-2025-62518,     the astral-tokio-tar project was changed to correctly honor PAX size headers in the case where it was     different from the base header. This is almost the inverse of the astral-tokio-tar issue. Any discrepancy     in how tar parsers honor file size can be used to create archives that appear differently when unpacked by     different archivers. In this case, the tar-rs (Rust tar) crate is an outlier in checking for the header     size - other tar parsers (including e.g. Go archive/tar) unconditionally use the PAX size override. This     can affect anything that uses the tar crate to parse archives and expects to have a consistent view with     other parsers. This issue has been fixed in version 0.4.45. (CVE-2026-33055)

    tar-rs is a tar archive reading/writing library for Rust. In versions 0.4.44 and below, when unpacking a     tar archive, the tar crate's unpack_dir function uses fs::metadata() to check whether a path that already     exists is a directory. Because fs::metadata() follows symbolic links, a crafted tarball containing a     symlink entry followed by a directory entry with the same name causes the crate to treat the symlink     target as a valid existing directory -- and subsequently apply chmod to it. This allows an attacker to     modify the permissions of arbitrary directories outside the extraction root. This issue has been fixed in     version 0.4.45. (CVE-2026-33056)

(CVE-2026-0810)

    time provides date and time handling in Rust. From 0.3.6 to before 0.3.47, when user-provided input is     provided to any type that parses with the RFC 2822 format, a denial of service attack via stack exhaustion     is possible. The attack relies on formally deprecated and rarely-used features that are part of the RFC     2822 format used in a malicious manner. Ordinary, non-malicious input will never encounter this scenario.
    A limit to the depth of recursion was added in v0.3.47. From this version, an error will be returned     rather than exhausting the stack. (CVE-2026-25727)
