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

The version of Golang running on the remote host is 1.26.x prior to 1.26.6. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability in the bundled golang.org/x/net/dns/dnsmessage package. Parsing an invalid SVCB or HTTPS RR can panic when the size of a parameter value overflows the message buffer.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:3630-1 advisory.

    - CVE-2025-47911: golang.org/x/net/html: algorithms that have quadratic complexity when parsing HTML     documents allow       for denial of service (bsc#1251420).
    - CVE-2025-47914: golang.org/x/crypto/ssh/agent: no validation of message size when processing new     identity requests       can cause a panic due to an out-of-bounds read (bsc#1254014).
    - CVE-2025-58181: golang.org/x/crypto/ssh: no validation of number of mechanisms in GSSAPI authentication     requests can       cause unbounded memory consumption (bsc#1253935).
    - CVE-2025-58190: golang.org/x/net/html: excessive memory consumption by `html.ParseFragment` when     processing specially       crafted input can lead to a denial of service (bsc#1251615).

    Other updates and bugfixes:

    - Fixed `printf`-style calls with non-constant format strings (`cmd/virt-chroot`, `tests/`) that fail     `go1.25`'s vet       (toolchain required by the `x/net` 0.55.0 re-vendor); rewritten with no behavior change.
    - Build with Go >= 1.25 (required by `golang.org/x/net` 0.55).

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - Parsing an invalid SVCB or HTTPS RR can panic when the size of a parameter value overflows the message
    buffer. (CVE-2026-46600)

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:3480-1 advisory.

    - Security update correcting a CVE over-claim from the previous       update, verified by auditing the fix code actually present in the       vendored tree:

      * CVE-2026-39821 (bsc#1266575): the previous entry claimed this         fixed by the golang.org/x/net v0.55.0 re-vendor, but 0.55.0's         idna fix is compile-time gated on Unicode 16 tables, which only         exist for go1.27+ - it is inert in our go1.25 builds, so the         claim was incorrect. Re-vendor golang.org/x/net v0.55.0 ->         v0.57.0, whose idna package rejects all-ASCII Punycode labels         unconditionally; the CVE is now actually fixed.

    - Re-vendor golang.org/x/text v0.37.0 -> v0.40.0: CVE-2026-56852       (bsc#1271661), infinite loop on invalid input in unicode/norm.

    - golang.org/x/crypto v0.52.0 -> v0.54.0 (pulled in by x/net 0.57.0;
      no additional CVE claims, all previously listed x/crypto fixes       remain included).

    - CVE-2026-13201 (bsc#1269093), safepath resolves a path whose last       component is a symlink without detecting it, allowing metadata       operations via /proc/self/fd to act on the symlink target.
      Backports of upstream release-1.7 commits 9ecda4ad5e and       1494cee849.
    - x/net 0.57.0 also contains the fix for CVE-2026-46600       (bsc#1272415) in dns/dnsmessage; kubevirt does not vendor that       package (not affected), the bump merely rides past it.

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

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

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Parsing an invalid SVCB or HTTPS RR can panic when the size of a parameter value overflows the message     buffer. (CVE-2026-46600)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
