high Nessus Plugin ID 358913

Synopsis

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

Description

The Rocky Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the CIQ crlsa-2026_42887 advisory.

* JDK: Enhance TLS certificate handling (CVE-2026-46968)

* JDK: Improve DTLS handshaking (CVE-2026-46917)

* JDK: Enhance JPEG handling (CVE-2026-47010)

* JDK: Enhance XBM image support (CVE-2026-47021)

* JDK: Enhance Jar file processing (CVE-2026-47027)

* JDK: Improve certification checking (CVE-2026-60147)

* JDK: Enhance AWT ImagingLib (CVE-2026-47059)

* JDK: Enhance Jar handling (CVE-2026-47063)

* JDK: Update LCMS to 2.19 (CVE-2026-41254)

Enhancement(s):

* For the last couple of years, OpenJDK has used a single build shared among multiple RPMs and a tarball available on the customer portal. The single portable build has a release number ('p') and each RPM has its own release number ('r'). However, the RPM naming only showed the RPM release number, while the version output from the build showed the portable release number, making it unclear that they were different numbers. From this release onwards, a release field of the form 'p.r' is always used for RPMs and the version output shows 'p'. (Rocky Linux-212474, Rocky Linux-212475, Rocky Linux-212476, Rocky Linux-212477, Rocky Linux-212478, Rocky Linux-212479, Rocky Linux-212480, Rocky Linux-212481)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the CIQ 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 packages based on the guidance in CIQ advisory crlsa-2026_42887.
