Synopsis

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

Description

The remote openSUSE 16 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2026:20214-1 advisory.

Update to version 1.25.7.

Security issues fixed:

- CVE-2025-61732: cmd/go: discrepancy between Go and C/C++ comment parsing allows for C code smuggling (bsc#1257692).
- CVE-2025-68121: crypto/tls: Config.Clone copies automatically generated session ticket keys, session resumption does not account for the expiration of full certificate chain (bsc#1256818).

Other updates and bugfixes:

- version update to 1.25.7:

* go#75844 cmd/compile: OOM killed on linux/arm64
* go#77323 crypto/x509: single-label excluded DNS name constraints incorrectly match all wildcard SANs
* go#77425 crypto/tls: CL 737700 broke session resumption on macOS

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.

Solution

Update the affected go1.25, go1.25-libstd and / or go1.25-race packages.
