Description

The remote Debian 11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-5231 advisory.

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in ConnMan, a network manager for embedded devices, which could result in denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code. For the stable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed in version 1.36-2.2+deb11u1. We recommend that you upgrade your connman packages.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.

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

Solution
