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.

- Nodemailer before 10.0.2 fails to properly flatten deeply nested arrays in recipient fields such as to, cc, and bcc, allowing attackers to cause stack exhaustion. Attackers can supply a deeply nested JSON recipient array that triggers recursive Array.toString() conversion, exhausting the call stack and terminating the Node.js process. (CVE-2026-100702)

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