CentOS Linux 7 [TuxCare] Security Update: cpp / gcc / gcc-c++ / gcc-gfortran / gcc-gnat / gcc-go / gcc-objc / etc (CENTOS7:CLSA-2026:1793100162)

high Nessus Plugin ID 374133

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-2026:1793100162 advisory.

- A flaw was found in GCC. When an application calls the erase_if function on a binary heap priority queue in libstdc++, the library reallocates storage but fails to update its internal entry pointer. An attacker capable of triggering this operation can exploit this use-after-free condition, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) via an application crash or potential memory corruption. (CVE-2026-102010)

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-2026:1793100162.
