Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-94447
medium Nessus Plugin ID 365503
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.- Previously, a user operating inside of a malicious Go project that defines a bogus golang.org/toolchain go.sum entry and operates a malicious GOMODPROXY the user chooses to use can bypass the intended checksum.
We now ensure that golang.org/toolchain always goes to the network for the canonical checksum.
(CVE-2026-94447)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
