Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-28370

critical Nessus Plugin ID 300478

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.

 - In the query parser in OpenStack Vitrage before 12.0.1, 13.0.0, 14.0.0, and 15.0.0, a user allowed to access the Vitrage API may trigger code execution on the Vitrage service host as the user the Vitrage service runs under. This may result in unauthorized access to the host and further compromise of the Vitrage service. All deployments exposing the Vitrage API are affected. This occurs in
 _create_query_function in vitrage/graph/query.py. (CVE-2026-28370)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
