The remote openSUSE 16 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2026:21776-1 advisory.

    - CVE-2026-10805: local privilege escalation via malformed MUD URLs in dhclient backend (bsc#1267696).
    - CVE-2026-19685: missing user ownership checks for 802.1X directory properties can allow WPA-Enterprise     server       certificate validation bypass (bsc#1276764).

According to the versions of the NetworkManager packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

    NetworkManager did not apply the private_user restriction to the 802-1x.ca-path and phase2-ca-path     directory-valued connection properties. This incomplete fix for CVE-2025-9615 allows an unprivileged local     user to point a private WPA-Enterprise (802.1X) connection profile's CA path at an attacker-controlled     directory, bypassing server certificate validation and enabling credential theft via a rogue access     point.(CVE-2026-19685)

    A flaw was found in NetworkManager. This local privilege escalation vulnerability exists in     NetworkManager's dhclient backend when processing malformed Manufacturer Usage Description (MUD) URLs. A     local user can exploit this flaw to escalate privileges by triggering a script via a crafted MUD URL,     provided an administrator has explicitly configured NetworkManager to use dhclient. This issue does not     affect default configurations of NetworkManager.(CVE-2026-10805)

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 10 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RHSA-2026:98586 advisory.

    NetworkManager is a system network service that manages network devices and connections, attempting to     keep active network connectivity when available. Its capabilities include managing Ethernet, wireless,     mobile broadband (WWAN), and PPPoE devices, as well as providing VPN integration with a variety of     different VPN services.

    Security Fix(es):

    * NetworkManager: NetworkManager: 802-1x ca-path and phase2-ca-path bypass private_user restriction,     allowing WPA-Enterprise server validation bypass (incomplete fix for CVE-2025-9615) (CVE-2026-19685)

The remote Ubuntu 26.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-8806-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that NetworkManager did not properly restrict the ca-path and phase2-ca-path certificate     authority settings for private (single-user) 802.1X network connections. An attacker could use this issue     to point their own private 802.1X connection profile at a directory under their control, causing     NetworkManager to trust an attacker-chosen certificate authority and potentially exposing network     credentials via a rogue authentication server.
