Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-126062

low Nessus Plugin ID 379135

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.

- Nokogiri is an open source XML and HTML library for the Ruby programming language. Prior to 1.19.5, on JRuby, applications that parse untrusted XML with DTDLOAD, DTDVALID, or NOENT can have the NONET restriction bypassed when an external DTD or entity uses a short-form IPv4 host or uses absolute paths resolved against a network URL. The resolver can treat these identifiers as local and send a network request, potentially enabling server-side request forgery. CRuby and default parse options are not affected. This issue is fixed in version 1.19.5. (CVE-2026-126062)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
