Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-71235

high Nessus Plugin ID 332742

Language:

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.

 - Magistrala's Rules Engine allows authenticated users to create rules with embedded Go or Lua scripts executed server-side when IoT messages arrive. The Lua script engine (re/lua.go) performs no input validation at all and preloads dangerous libraries: db (arbitrary database access), ioutil (file I/O), an HTTP client (SSRF), and filepath (traversal). (CVE-2026-71235)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
