There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

  - Mbed TLS before 3.6.4 allows a use-after-free in certain situations of applications that are developed in
    accordance with the documentation. The function mbedtls_x509_string_to_names() takes a head argument that
    is documented as an output argument. The documentation does not suggest that the function will free that
    pointer; however, the function does call mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data_list() on that argument, which
    performs a deep free(). As a result, application code that uses this function (relying only on documented
    behavior) is likely to still hold pointers to the memory blocks that were freed, resulting in a high risk
    of use-after-free or double-free. In particular, the two sample programs x509/cert_write and x509/cert_req
    are affected (use-after-free if the san string contains more than one DN). (CVE-2025-47917)

  - Mbed TLS before 3.6.4 has a NULL pointer dereference because mbedtls_asn1_store_named_data can trigger
    conflicting data with val.p of NULL but val.len greater than zero. (CVE-2025-48965)

  - In Mbed TLS 3.6.1 through 3.6.3 before 3.6.4, a timing discrepancy in block cipher padding removal allows
    an attacker to recover the plaintext when PKCS#7 padding mode is used. (CVE-2025-49087)

  - In MbedTLS 3.3.0 before 3.6.4, mbedtls_lms_verify may accept invalid signatures if hash computation fails
    and internal errors go unchecked, enabling LMS (Leighton-Micali Signature) forgery in a fault scenario.
    Specifically, unchecked return values in mbedtls_lms_verify allow an attacker (who can induce a hardware
    hash accelerator fault) to bypass LMS signature verification by reusing stale stack data, resulting in
    acceptance of an invalid signature. In mbedtls_lms_verify, the return values of the internal Merkle tree
    functions create_merkle_leaf_value and create_merkle_internal_value are not checked. These functions
    return an integer that indicates whether the call succeeded or not. If a failure occurs, the output buffer
    (Tc_candidate_root_node) may remain uninitialized, and the result of the signature verification is
    unpredictable. When the software implementation of SHA-256 is used, these functions will not fail.
    However, with hardware-accelerated hashing, an attacker could use fault injection against the accelerator
    to bypass verification. (CVE-2025-49600)

The remote Fedora 42 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2025-cbd9bd51dd advisory.

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8123-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly handled memory allocation failures. A remote attacker could     possibly use this issue to crash the program. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04     LTS. (CVE-2021-44732)

    Jonathan Winzig discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly handled crafted inputs. A remote attacker could     possibly use this issue to crash the program, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected     Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-23775)

    It was discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly handled the TLS handshake. A remote attacker could possibly     use this issue to break the security guarantees of the TLS handshake. (CVE-2025-27810)

    Linh Le and Ngan Nguyen discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly documented the behavior of a function.
    Application code relying on the documented behavior might be affected. A remote attacker could possibly     use this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2025-47917)

    Linh Le and Ngan Nguyen discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly handled crafted input. A remote attacker     could possibly use this issue to crash the program, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2025-48965)

    It was discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly handled a race condition. An attacker could possibly use this     issue to extract AES keys. (CVE-2025-52496)

    Linh Le and Ngan Nguyen discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly handled certain invalid input. A remote     attacker could possibly use this issue to crash the program, resulting in a denial of service.
    (CVE-2025-52497)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu 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 Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Mbed TLS before 3.6.4 has a race condition in AESNI detection if certain compiler optimizations occur. An     attacker may be able to extract an AES key from a multithreaded program, or perform a GCM forgery.
    (CVE-2025-52496)

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