Fedora 43 : opkssh (2026-8d9ba295e0)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 341820

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 multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2026-8d9ba295e0 advisory.

 Update the bundled github.com/go-chi/chi/v5 to v5.3.1, which is outside the range affected by CVE-2026-72815, CVE-2026-72816 and CVE-2026-72817 (IP spoofing via chi's RealIP middleware).

 opkssh bundles only chi's root router package and never the affected middleware package, so the vulnerable code was not actually shipped in any opkssh build.


Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora 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 opkssh package.
