Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2025:4337-1 advisory.

 go1.24.11 (released 2025-12-02) includes two security fixes to the crypto/x509 package, as well as bug fixes to the runtime. (bsc#1236217)

 CVE-2025-61727 CVE-2025-61729:

 * go#76460 go#76445 bsc#1254431 security: fix CVE-2025-61729 crypto/x509: excessive resource consumption in printing error string for host certificate validation
 * go#76463 go#76442 bsc#1254430 security: fix CVE-2025-61727 crypto/x509: excluded subdomain constraint doesn't preclude wildcard SAN

 * go#76378 internal/cpu: incorrect CPU features bit parsing on loong64 cause illegal instruction core dumps on LA364 cores

 - Packaging: Migrate from update-alternatives to libalternatives (bsc#1245878)
 * This is an optional migration controlled via prjconf definition with_libalternatives
 * If with_libalternatives is not defined packaging continues to use update-alternatives

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.
