Comment 6 Alex 2024-06-09 15:12:17 UTC
The result of automatic check (that is developed by Alexander Larkin) for this CVE-2024-26830 is: CHECK	Maybe valid. Check manually. with impact MODERATE (that is approximation based on flags REMOTE VIRT NETWORK  ; these flags parsed automatically based on patche data). Such automatic check happens only for Low/Moderates (and only when not from reporter, but parsing already existing CVE). Highs always checked manually (I check it myself and then we check it again in Remediation team). In rare cases some of the Moderates could be increased to High later.

Comment 19 Klaas Demter 2025-01-13 11:02:52 UTC
Why is this fixed in various minor rhel versions -- 8.6 -- 8.8 -- 9.2 and not in the main rhel 8/9 versions? They are marked as "affected" in https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-26830

Hi Klaas,
This issue was fixed for the lead RHEL 8 and 9 versions in errata that incorporated many other fixes:
RHSA-2024:2394 (RHEL 9.4)
RHSA-2024:3138 (RHEL 8.10)

I'm working on an issue with the metadata for this flaw, but the erroneous "Affected" entries for RHEL 8 and 9 should be resolved in a day or two.
