Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-93602

medium Nessus Plugin ID 348629

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.

 - rustls-webpki versions before 0.103.10 and 0.104.0-alpha.5 contain faulty CRL authority-matching logic that compares only the first distributionPoint against each CRL's IssuingDistributionPoint, ignoring additional distributionPoints. Attackers with a compromised trusted issuing authority can present revoked certificates that pass revocation checks under UnknownStatusPolicy::Allow, or cause incorrect errors under the default deny policy. (CVE-2026-93602)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
