Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote openSUSE 16 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2026:21242-1 advisory.

This update for assimp fixes the following issues

- CVE-2025-11277: large mWidth and mHeight dimensions can lead to integer overflow and a heap-based buffer overflow (bsc#1251019).
- CVE-2026-10197: NULL pointer dereference in ImportEmbeddedTextures when mimeType lacks '/' (bsc#1266996).
- CVE-2026-10199: NULL pointer dereference in glTF2::LazyDict::operator[] due to unchecked node access in ImportAnimations (bsc#1266998).

- CVE-2026-10232: heap use-after-free in aiNode::~aiNode due to invalid node tree when processing malformed ASE files (bsc#1267037).

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE 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 assimp-devel and / or libassimp5 packages.
