Debian Linux - libgd2 - None

php7.4 - None

php8.2 - None

php8.4 - None

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

  - Debian Linux - libgd2 - None  php7.4 - None  php8.2 - None  php8.4 - None (CVE-2026-9672)

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

The version of php82 installed on the remote host is prior to 8.2.33 / 8.4.24. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SSA:2026-211-01 advisory.

    New php packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to fix security issues.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the php82 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 version of PHP installed on the remote host is prior to 8.4.24. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the Version 8.4.24 advisory.

  - Improper escaping of backslashes in attacker-provided parameters would allow for trivial SQL injection in     PHP versions from 8.2.* before 8.2.33, from 8.3.* before 8.3.33, from 8.4.* before 8.4.24, and from 8.5.*     before 8.5.9. (CVE-2026-17543)

  - Attacker-provided inputs to bccomp() could lead to an out-of-bounds write with stack and heap corruption     in PHP versions from 8.4.* before 8.4.24 and from 8.5.* before 8.5.9. (CVE-2026-17544)

  - Circular symbolic links in phar archives could lead to unbounded recursion, exhausting the C stack and     crashing the PHP process, in PHP versions from 8.2.* before 8.2.33, from 8.3.* before 8.3.33, from 8.4.*     before 8.4.24, and from 8.5.* before 8.5.9. (CVE-2026-7260)

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 PHP installed on the remote host is prior to 8.3.33. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the Version 8.3.33 advisory.

  - Improper escaping of backslashes in attacker-provided parameters would allow for trivial SQL injection in     PHP versions from 8.2.* before 8.2.33, from 8.3.* before 8.3.33, from 8.4.* before 8.4.24, and from 8.5.*     before 8.5.9. (CVE-2026-17543)

The version of PHP installed on the remote host is prior to 8.5.9. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the Version 8.5.9 advisory.

  - Improper escaping of backslashes in attacker-provided parameters would allow for trivial SQL injection in     PHP versions from 8.2.* before 8.2.33, from 8.3.* before 8.3.33, from 8.4.* before 8.4.24, and from 8.5.*     before 8.5.9. (CVE-2026-17543)

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 PHP installed on the remote host is prior to 8.2.33. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the Version 8.2.33 advisory.

  - Improper escaping of backslashes in attacker-provided parameters would allow for trivial SQL injection in     PHP versions from 8.2.* before 8.2.33, from 8.3.* before 8.3.33, from 8.4.* before 8.4.24, and from 8.5.*     before 8.5.9. (CVE-2026-17543)
