Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-45104

high Nessus Plugin ID 318158

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.

 - MapServer is a system for developing web-based GIS applications. From 6.4.0 to before 8.6.3, msSLDParseUserStyle always calls _SLDApplyRuleValues(psRule, psLayer, 1); for any <Rule> carrying <ElseFilter/> it assumes msSLDParseRule added one class. When the rule has no symbolizer (a structurally valid SLD), msSLDParseRule adds zero, and _SLDApplyRuleValues ends up indexing _class[-1], resulting in a NULL pointer dereference. A 200-byte well-formed SLD via the WMS SLD_BODY= parameter is enough to trigger this, no auth required. This vulnerability is fixed in 8.6.3. (CVE-2026-45104)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
