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

  - sqlparse is a non-validating SQL parser module for Python. Prior to 0.6.0, SQL_REGEX in
    sqlparse/keywords.py and the per-position loop in sqlparse/lexer.py repeatedly scan unmatched dollar-
    quoted literal and multiline-comment delimiters, causing quadratic CPU consumption through
    sqlparse.parse(), sqlparse.format(), and sqlparse.split(). This issue is fixed in version 0.6.0.
    (CVE-2026-59893)

The version of the sqlparse Python library installed on the remote host is prior to 0.6.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists in sqlparse due to the regular expressions used by the lexer to     match dollar-quoted strings and multiline comments. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this,     by supplying specially crafted SQL input, to cause catastrophic backtracking and exhaust available     resources. (CVE-2026-59893)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists in sqlparse in the token list handling implemented in     sqlparse/sql.py. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by supplying deeply nested SQL     input, to consume excessive CPU and memory resources. (CVE-2026-54284)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists in sqlparse in the comment grouping logic implemented in     sqlparse/engine/grouping.py. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by supplying specially     crafted SQL input containing many comments, to consume excessive resources due to repeated rescanning of     the token stream. (CVE-2026-71491)

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

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:3762-1 advisory.

    - CVE-2026-54284: TokenList.__init__ materializes O(subtree) value per group, causing CPU DoS before     depth/token caps       trigger (bsc#1275459).
    - CVE-2026-59893: Inefficient Regex Handling of Dollar-Quoted SQL Literals Leads to ReDoS (bsc#1275461).
    - CVE-2026-59894: Generated Python and PHP snippets allow SQL string breakout through unescaped     backslashes       (bsc#1275460).
    - CVE-2026-71491: quadratic O(n2) DoS in group_comments (bsc#1275466).

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - sqlparse is a non-validating SQL parser module for Python. Prior to 0.6.0, SQL_REGEX in     sqlparse/keywords.py and the per-position loop in sqlparse/lexer.py repeatedly scan unmatched dollar-     quoted literal and multiline-comment delimiters, causing quadratic CPU consumption through     sqlparse.parse(), sqlparse.format(), and sqlparse.split(). This issue is fixed in version 0.6.0.
    (CVE-2026-59893)

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

The remote openSUSE 16 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2026:21690-1 advisory.

    - CVE-2026-54284: high algorithm complexity when parsing SQL payloads with hundreds of nesting levels can     lead to denial       of service via excessive resource consumption (bsc#1275459).
    - CVE-2026-59893: quadratic complexity when processing unmatched dollar-quoted literal and multiline-     comment delimiters       can lead to denial of service (bsc#1275461).
    - CVE-2026-59894: improper backlash escaping allows for injection of Python or PHP code via a crafted SQL     input       (bsc#1275460).
    - CVE-2026-71491: quadratic complexity in `group_comments` when processing comment-only statements can     lead to denial       of services (bsc#1275466).
    - Incomplete GHSA-27jp-wm6q-gp25 patch (bsc#1268597).
