Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-93588

low Nessus Plugin ID 348613

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.

 - ImageMagick before 7.1.2-31 and before 6.9.13-56 contains a NULL pointer dereference in the PNM coder.
 When the coder reaches a memory (resource) limit at a specific point during processing, the failed allocation is not handled and a NULL pointer is dereferenced, which can lead to a denial of service (application crash) when processing a specially crafted or sufficiently large PNM image. (CVE-2026-93588)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
