Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-32141

high Nessus Plugin ID 302061

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.

- flatted is a circular JSON parser. Prior to 3.4.0, flatted's parse() function uses a recursive revive() phase to resolve circular references in deserialized JSON. When given a crafted payload with deeply nested or self-referential $ indices, the recursion depth is unbounded, causing a stack overflow that crashes the Node.js process. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.4.0. (CVE-2026-32141)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
