AlmaLinux 2613 Published by

AlmaLinux released four important security errata covering Libreswan across versions 8 through 10 and Grafana for version 8. The Libreswan updates patch four separate flaws that enable denial of service attacks or daemon crashes when attackers send malformed IKE packets or improperly formatted X.509 certificates. A dedicated Grafana release fixes a validation weakness in the go-billy Git library while adjusting a build macro for the Konflux pipeline. Operators need to deploy these patches immediately to close CVE gaps spanning from 2026-12413 through 2026-50722 before threat actors exploit the VPN tunneling weaknesses.
