AlmaLinux 10 : java-25-openjdk (ALSA-2026:9693)
high Nessus Plugin ID 310149
Synopsis
The remote AlmaLinux host is missing one or more security updates.Description
The remote AlmaLinux 10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALSA-2026:9693 advisory.* JDK: Enhance crypto algorithm support (CVE-2026-22007)
* JDK: Improved Arena allocations (CVE-2026-22008)
* JDK: Improve Kerberos credentialing (CVE-2026-22013)
* JDK: Enhance Path Factories Redux (CVE-2026-22016)
* JDK: Enhance Zip file reading (CVE-2026-22018)
* JDK: Enhance certificate chain validation (CVE-2026-22021)
* JDK: Updating FreeType 2.14.1 (CVE-2026-23865)
* JDK: Enhance TLS connection handling (CVE-2026-34282)
* JDK: Enhance key generation (CVE-2026-34268)
This release also updates a number of third-party libraries included in the JDK. The libraries themselves are affected by the following CVEs, but this is not a statement that the JDK itself is affected:
* giflib: Denial of Service via buffer overflow in EGifGCBToExtension (CVE-2026-26740)
* libpng: Information disclosure and denial of service via out-of-bounds read/write in Neon palette expansion (CVE-2026-33636)
* libpng: Arbitrary code execution due to use-after-free vulnerability (CVE-2026-33416)
Bug Fix(es):
* When copying files, OpenJDK 25 prefers to use the copy_file_range native function for performance reasons, only falling back to sendfile when this fails. However, in previous OpenJDK 25 releases, a response of EOPNOTSUPP (operation not supported) did not cause the JDK to fall back to sendfile. This is rectified in this release. (AlmaLinux-169939, AlmaLinux-169937)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the AlmaLinux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
