The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - SQLSpecialColumns in psqlODBC splices the table and schema names it receives into its catalog query     without escaping them, while the other catalog functions escape them. An application that passes an     untrusted table or schema name to SQLSpecialColumns lets the caller execute arbitrary SQL with the     privileges of the connection. Versions before psqlODBC 18.00.0006 are affected. (CVE-2026-120062)

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

The remote openSUSE 16 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2026:22261-1 advisory.

    Changes in psqlODBC:

    - Update to 18.00.0006:
      * Large-object read overflows the application buffer         (CVE-2026-120057, bsc#1289252).
      * Row cache overflow when a later FETCH changes the column count         (CVE-2026-120058, bsc#1289253).
      * Driver uses a server-supplied column name as a format string         (CVE-2026-120059, bsc#1289254).
      * Driver does not validate server-supplied counts and lengths         (CVE-2026-120060, bsc#1289255).
      * ODBC escape parser stack buffer overflow         (CVE-2026-120061, bsc#1289256).
      * SQL injection through SQLSpecialColumns table and schema names         (CVE-2026-120062, bsc#1289257).
      * Stack buffer overflow when quoting long schema and table names         (CVE-2026-120063, bsc#1289258).
      * Driver does not validate column numbers and row indexes in         binding and descriptor functions         (CVE-2026-120064, bsc#1289259).
      * Driver does not escape a server-supplied column name in its         updatable-cursor queries (CVE-2026-120065, bsc#1289260).
      * Log files are created with default permissions at a predictable         path and follow symbolic links         (CVE-2026-120066, bsc#1289261).
      * Stack buffer overflow when reading the keyset (ctid/oid)         columns of an updatable cursor         (CVE-2026-120067, bsc#1289262).
      * Hardening: SQLSetDescRecW stored a freed buffer and the address         of a local variable as deferred bound data. It now stores the         application's pointers, as SQLSetDescRec does.
      * Hardening: SQLColumns returned uninitialized relkind and table         OID values when the table query returned no rows.
      * Hardening: convert_linefeeds could dereference a NULL pointer         in one build configuration.
      * Hardening: secure_sscanf limits an over-wide %Ns width,         msgtowstr checks for a zero buffer length, and the MSDTC         connect-string append is bounded.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:5191-1 advisory.

      * Redact the database password (ODBC PWD and libpq pqopt         password) in debug logs.
      * Fix hang on COPY ... FROM STDIN / TO STDOUT: report it as         unsupported and keep the connection usable.
