The remote RockyLinux 10 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RLSA-2026:61340 advisory.

    * dbus-broker: dbus-broker: session bus denial of service via EMFILE during peer setup (CVE-2026-16730)

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

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue 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.

  - A flaw was found in dbus-broker. When the process file-descriptor limit is reached, EMFILE/ENFILE errors     during peer setup (notably SO_PEERPIDFD) are handled as fatal failures, causing the broker to exit. A     local attacker who can open many connections to the user session bus can trigger this and deny service to     the desktop session. Flatpak applications can reach the host session bus through the dbus proxy.
    (CVE-2026-16730)

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