EulerOS Virtualization 2.12.1 (EulerOS-SA-2026-2731)

high Nessus Plugin ID 328650

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

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

 In MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.22.3, there is a NULL pointer dereference if an application calls gss_accept_sec_context() on a system with a NegoEx mechanism registered in /etc/gss/mech. An unauthenticated remote attacker can trigger this, causing the process to terminate in parse_nego_message.(CVE-2026-40355)

 In MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.22.3, there is an integer underflow and resultant out-of-bounds read if an application calls gss_accept_sec_context() on a system with a NegoEx mechanism registered in /etc/gss/mech. An unauthenticated remote attacker can trigger this, possibly causing the process to terminate in parse_message.(CVE-2026-40356)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS Virtualization 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 remote EulerOS Virtualization host.
