unity_linux UTSA-2026-130354: Unity Linux: open-iscsi (UTSA-2026-130354)

According to the versions of the open-iscsi packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

    A stack buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the idbm_recinfo_config() function in open-iscsi (iscsi-     initiator-utils). An attacker can craft a malicious SendTargets TargetName containing newline characters     and oversized injected keys or values to inject extra configuration lines into persisted node records.
    When the record is reparsed, due to missing bounds checking, a stack buffer overflow occurs, leading to     denial of service or potential memory corruption. The affected component is usr/idbm.c:idbm_recinfo_config     in iscsi-initiator-utils, with attacker-controlled input reaching it through SendTargets handling in     usr/discovery.c.(CVE-2026-18724)

    An Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in open-     iscsi allows remote MITM attackers  to create root-owned files outside the database and inject lines into     the record.






    This issue affects open-iscsi: from through 668ca1df9c9a1e9bdd5c999ae1d67c9c8909237e.(CVE-2026-44943)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS open-iscsi security advisory.

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

    CVE-2026-18726

       Multiple vulnerabilities exist in the ICMPv6 Router Advertisement        option parsing.

    CVE-2026-18727

The version of iscsi-initiator-utils installed on the remote host is prior to 6.2.0.874-7. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2026-3897 advisory.

    open-iscsi: open-iscsi: Stack buffer overflow in idbm record parsing (CVE-2026-18724)

    open-iscsi: open-iscsi: Out-of-bounds access in iscsiuio ICMPv6 echo handling (CVE-2026-18725)

    A flaw was found in open-iscsi. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker on the same local network     segment to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) in the iscsiuio daemon. By sending a specially crafted Internet     Control Message Protocol version 6 (ICMPv6) Router Advertisement with a zero-length option, the attacker     can trigger an infinite loop. This leads to sustained CPU usage, rendering the daemon unresponsive and     impacting system availability. A secondary risk of out-of-bounds reads exists with a short IPv6 payload,     though no memory corruption or data exposure has been confirmed. (CVE-2026-18726)

    A flaw was found in open-iscsi's iscsiuio component. This vulnerability involves an integer underflow and     out-of-bounds read during Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6) packet parsing.
    Specifically, crafted DHCPv6 Advertise traffic with a short User Datagram Protocol (UDP) length can cause     the DHCPv6 payload length to underflow. An unauthenticated attacker on an adjacent network segment can     exploit this by sending specially crafted IPv6 UDP traffic while the client is in an active DHCPv6     exchange, leading to a denial of service due to a process crash or service disruption. (CVE-2026-18727)

    A flaw was found in open-iscsi. An integer underflow vulnerability in the `iscsiuio` component,     specifically during IPv4 Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) parsing, allows a remote attacker on     the same local network segment to cause a denial of service. By sending a specially crafted IPv4/UDP DHCP     reply, the attacker can trigger an out-of-bounds read, leading to the `iscsiuio` process crashing. This     issue affects systems where `iscsiuio` is actively handling IPv4 DHCP traffic. (CVE-2026-18728)

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

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

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2026-2120 advisory.
