high Nessus Plugin ID 331673

Synopsis

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

Description

The remote Fedora 43 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2026-a488a993d1 advisory.

 Update to goaccess 1.11.

 Notable fixes:
 - Fixed a heap buffer overflow when parsing malformed Opera user agents
 - Fixed an infinite loop while writing log parsing errors from multiple input files
 - Fixed unique visitor undercounting caused by key collisions
 - Fixed city lookups ignoring the City database when Country was listed first

 Also includes: automatic crash-safe migration to storage format v3, ~20% lower storage memory usage and ~35% faster parsing, fullscreen geolocation map controls in the HTML report, and Traditional Chinese translation.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected goaccess package.
