CentOS Linux 7 [TuxCare] Security Update: ctdb / ctdb-tests / libsmbclient / libsmbclient-devel / libwbclient / etc (CENTOS7:CLSA-2026:1780662711)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 352210

Synopsis

The CentOS Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The CentOS Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TuxCare CENTOS7:CLSA-2026:1780662711 advisory.

 - A flaw was found in the Samba printing subsystem. Samba passes the client-controlled job description string to the command configured with the print command setting via the %J substitution character without escaping shell meta characters. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted print job description that contains unescaped shell characters. This could lead to remote code execution on the affected system. (CVE-2026-4480)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages based on the guidance in TuxCare advisory CENTOS7:CLSA-2026:1780662711.
