Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:4628-1 advisory.

 Security issues fixed:

 - CVE-2026-44740: github.com/go-git/go-billy/v5: improper input handling in many components can lead to DoS via infinite loops, panics or resource consumption (bsc#1267271 bsc#1267273 bsc#1267276).
 - CVE-2026-56854,CVE-2026-56855,CVE-2026-78662: golang.org/x/crypto/ssh: authentication bypass and deadlocks in the crypto/ssh library (bsc#1278462 bsc#1278477 bsc#1278505).
 - CVE-2026-71556: github.com/go-git/go-git/v5: Arbitrary file read/write via symbolic link resolution (bsc#1276980).
 - CVE-2026-71557: github.com/go-git/go-git/v5: Malicious reference names may modify files outside the reference storage (bsc#1276990).
 - CVE-2026-84303: github.com/grpc/grpc-go: xDS RBAC HTTP filter implementation issue allows for bypass of authorization policies via mixed-case or canonical-case header matches (bsc#1278269 bsc#1279243 bsc#1279245 bsc#1279252 bsc#1279263 bsc#1279386).
 - CVE-2026-84304: github.com/grpc/grpc-go: heap memory exhaustion via HTTP/2 DATA frame fragmentation (bsc#1278272 bsc#1279072 bsc#1279080 bsc#1279137).
 - CVE-2026-84445: google.golang.org/grpc: DoS via crash due to missing ':authority' and 'Host' headers in gRPC-Go xDS servers (bsc#1278742 bsc#1278743 bsc#1278751 bsc#1278763).
 - gRPC-Go: several issues affecting the xDS RBAC authorization engine and the HTTP/2 transport server implementation (bsc#1278267).

 Non security issue fixed:

 - terraform-provider-{aws,external,google,random,tls}: aarch64 build installs provider binary under linux_amd64 instead of linux_arm64, breaking terraform init (bsc#1280175).

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE 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.
