Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-93326

medium Nessus Plugin ID 364229

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.

 - A build step for a Git source, crafted in a specific way, can bypass some policy validation rules. A malicious build definition can make the repository look like it is coming from a different remote URL than it really is when Git clone is happening. If policy is doing more stricter validation, for example based on commit SHA, commit data, or signatures, then all these validations still apply correctly.
 (CVE-2026-93326)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
