Synopsis

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

Description

The remote MiracleLinux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2025-10920:15 advisory.

 * CVE-2025-4802: prevent untrusted LD_LIBRARY_PATH from loading dynamically shared libraries in statically compiled binaries that call dlopen
 * CVE-2019-9169: fix heap-based buffer over-read in proceed_next_node function in posix/regexec.c CVE(s):
 CVE-2025-4802 Untrusted LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable vulnerability in the GNU C Library version 2.27 to 2.38 allows attacker controlled loading of dynamically shared library in statically compiled setuid binaries that call dlopen (including internal dlopen calls after setlocale or calls to NSS functions such as getaddrinfo).
 CVE-2019-9169 In the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) through 2.29, proceed_next_node in posix/regexec.c has a heap- based buffer over-read via an attempted case-insensitive regular-expression match.

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

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
