EulerOS Virtualization 2.10.0 : avahi (EulerOS-SA-2026-2042)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 319391

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

According to the versions of the avahi package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 Avahi is a system which facilitates service discovery on a local network via the mDNS/DNS-SD protocol suite. In 0.9-rc2 and earlier, an unprivileged local users can crash avahi-daemon (with wide-area disabled) by creating record browsers with the AVAHI_LOOKUP_USE_WIDE_AREA flag set via D-Bus. This can be done by either calling the RecordBrowserNew method directly or creating hostname/address/service resolvers/browsers that create those browsers internally themselves.(CVE-2025-68276)

 Avahi is a system which facilitates service discovery on a local network via the mDNS/DNS-SD protocol suite. In 0.9-rc2 and earlier, avahi-daemon can be crashed by sending unsolicited announcements containing CNAME resource records pointing it to resource records with short TTLs. As soon as they expire avahi- daemon crashes.(CVE-2025-68468)

 Avahi is a system which facilitates service discovery on a local network via the mDNS/DNS-SD protocol suite. In 0.9-rc2 and earlier, avahi-daemon can be crashed by sending 2 unsolicited announcements with CNAME resource records 2 seconds apart.(CVE-2025-68471)

 Avahi is a system which facilitates service discovery on a local network via the mDNS/DNS-SD protocol suite. In versions 0.9rc2 and below, avahi-daemon can be crashed via a segmentation fault by sending an unsolicited mDNS response containing a recursive CNAME record, where the alias and canonical name point to the same domain (e.g., 'h.local' as a CNAME for 'h.local'). This causes unbounded recursion in the lookup_handle_cname function, leading to stack exhaustion. The vulnerability affects record browsers where AVAHI_LOOKUP_USE_MULTICAST is set explicitly, which includes record browsers created by resolvers used by nss-mdns. This issue is patched in commit 78eab31128479f06e30beb8c1cbf99dd921e2524.(CVE-2026-24401)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS Virtualization avahi 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 avahi packages.
