Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-123177

high Nessus Plugin ID 381433

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.

 - A flaw was found in dnf5daemon-server. Unauthenticated D-Bus methods pass caller-controlled URL or .rpm path patterns into a root-privileged cmdline package loader that may store fetched content in a world- readable cache without size limits, or open local paths as root, allowing a local attacker to disclose privileged content and to deny service via disk exhaustion. (CVE-2026-123177)

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

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
