The version of ISC BIND installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the cve-2026-3593 advisory.

  - A use-after-free vulnerability exists within the DNS-over-HTTPS implementation. This issue affects BIND 9     versions 9.20.0 through 9.20.22, 9.21.0 through 9.21.21, and 9.20.9-S1 through 9.20.22-S1. BIND 9 versions     9.18.0 through 9.18.48 and 9.18.11-S1 through 9.18.48-S1 are NOT affected. (CVE-2026-3593)

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

The remote Fedora 44 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2026-dbb0776ac5 advisory.

The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS / 25.10 / 26.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8293-1 advisory.

    Vitaly Simonovich discovered that Bind could exhaust memory during GSS-API TKEY negotiation. A remote     attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to use excessive resources, leading to a denial of     service. (CVE-2026-3039)

    Shuhan Zhang discovered that Bind incorrectly handled self-pointed glue records. A remote attacker could     possibly use this issue to use Bind in denial of service amplification attacks against other systems.
    (CVE-2026-3592)

    Naresh Kandula Parmar discovered that Bind incorrectly handled memory in the DNS-over-HTTPS     implementation. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a     denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 25.10 and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS.
    (CVE-2026-3593)

    It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled DNS messages whose class was not IN. A remote attacker     could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-5946)

    Naoki Wakamatsu discovered that Bind incorrectly handled SIG(0) validation during a query flood. A remote     attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This     issue only affected Ubuntu 25.10 and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-5947)

    Billy Baraja discovered that Bind had an unbounded resend loop in the resolver. A remote attacker could     possibly use this issue to cause Bind to use excessive resources, leading to a denial of service.
