Echo: nginx: security update to 1.26.3-3+deb13u7+e1

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 457820

Description

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

 - NGINX Plus and NGINX Open Source have a vulnerability in the ngx_http_slice_module module. When the slice
 directive and unnamed regex captures are configured or when a background cache update happens,
 unauthenticated attackers can send requests that may cause uninitialized memory access in the NGINX worker
 process, leading to limited disclosure of memory or a restart. Impact: This vulnerability may allow
 remote, unauthenticated attackers to have limited control to disclose memory contents or restart the NGINX
 worker process. There is no control plane exposure; this is a data plane issue only. Note: The
 ngx_http_slice_module module is not enabled by default; it's enabled with the --with-http_slice_module
 configuration parameter. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are
 not evaluated. (CVE-2026-60005)

Solution

Update the nginx library and its related packages to version 1.26.3-3+deb13u7+e1 or later.
