The version of VMware Workstation installed on the remote host is 15.0.x prior to 15.5.0. It is, therefore, affected by the following issues:

  - A use-after-free error in the virtual sound device that     allows a local attacker on the guest machine with low     privileges to execute code on the host. (CVE-2019-5527)

  - A denial of service vulnerability caused by improper     handling of some IPv6 packets. An attacker can exploit     this vulnerability to disallow network access for all     guest machines using the VMware NAT mode. To exploit     this vulnerability, the attacker must send specially     crafted IPv6 packets from a guest machine when IPv6 mode     for VMNAT is enabled. (CVE-2019-5535)

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