Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-0810

medium Nessus Plugin ID 287957

Language:

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

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

 - A flaw was found in gix-date. The `gix_date::parse::TimeBuf::as_str` function can generate strings containing invalid non-UTF8 characters. This issue violates the internal safety invariants of the `TimeBuf` component, leading to undefined behavior when these malformed strings are subsequently processed. This could potentially result in application instability or other unforeseen consequences.
 (CVE-2026-0810)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
