There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - Netty is a network application framework for development of protocol servers and clients. Prior to
    versions 4.1.135.Final and 4.2.15.Final, Netty's `DnsResolveContext` insufficiently validates the
    bailiwick of NS records, enabling DNS Cache Poisoning. An attacker controlling an authoritative name
    server for a subdomain can poison the cache for parent domains (like `.co.uk`). In
    `io.netty.resolver.dns.DnsResolveContext.AuthoritativeNameServerList#add` method accepts any NS record
    from the AUTHORITY section as long as the record's name is a suffix of the questionName. Subsequently, the
    `handleWithAdditional` method caches the associated A records from the ADDITIONAL section directly into
    the `authoritativeDnsServerCache` under the parent domain's key. This bypasses standard bailiwick rules,
    where a server authoritative for a subdomain should not be trusted to provide authoritative records for
    its parent. The poisoned cache is then used for all future resolutions under the parent domain's key.
    Versions 4.1.135.Final and 4.2.15.Final patch the issue. (CVE-2026-47691)

The remote Ubuntu 24.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-8742-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Netty incorrectly validates the bailiwick of NS records. An attacker could possibly     use this issue to facilitate DNS cache poisoning attacks.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu 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.
