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 HTTP/2 max header size handling produces an attack similar
    to HTTP/2 Rapid Reset. There is a setting in the http2 specification called
    `SETTINGS_MAX_HEADER_LIST_SIZE`. When a client sends that setting to Netty, it appears that Netty will
    behave as follows: read the request; proxy the request to the origin; attempt to produce a response; and
    create an exception while writing the headers for the response. Functionally, this should be similar to
    the http2 reset attack, but with a different on-the-wire signature. Versions 4.1.135.Final and
    4.2.15.Final patch the issue. (CVE-2026-50560)

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:2802-1 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.
