Azure Linux 3.0 Security Update: CBL-Mariner Releases (CVE-2026-59890)
medium Nessus Plugin ID 326880
Synopsis
The remote Azure Linux host is missing one or more security updates.Description
The version of CBL-Mariner Releases installed on the remote Azure Linux 3.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2026-59890 advisory.- setuptools is a package that allows users to download, build, install, upgrade, and uninstall Python packages. Prior to 83.0.0, FileList applied MANIFEST.in exclude, global-exclude, recursive-exclude, and prune directives by matching compiled glob patterns against on-disk file names without Unicode normalization, so on macOS APFS or HFS+ an NFD file name could bypass an NFC exclusion rule and be packed into a source distribution. This issue is fixed in version 83.0.0. (CVE-2026-59890)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
