Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-53877

medium Nessus Plugin ID 325505

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.

- An issue was discovered in Django 6.0 before 6.0.7 and 5.2 before 5.2.16.
`django.contrib.gis.gdal.GDALRaster` over-reads its in-memory buffer when constructed from a bytes object, which can disclose adjacent memory or cause service degradation via a potential segmentation fault when the `vsi_buffer` property is accessed. Earlier, unsupported Django series (such as 5.0.x, 4.1.x, and 3.2.x) were not evaluated and may also be affected. Django would like to thank Bence Nagy for reporting this issue. (CVE-2026-53877)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
