Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-126134

medium Nessus Plugin ID 378762

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.

- Thunderbird allowed feed subscriptions to file: URLs that point to a network share. If a user was tricked into subscribing to such a URL, Thunderbird connected to the attacker's server when fetching the feed.
Windows then sent the user's NTLM credentials to that server. This bug only affects Thunderbird on Windows. Other operating systems are unaffected. This vulnerability was fixed in Thunderbird 160 and Thunderbird 153.7. (CVE-2026-126134)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
