The remote SUSE Linux SLES12 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:4074-1 advisory.

  - In Twisted before 19.2.1, twisted.web did not validate or sanitize URIs or HTTP methods, allowing an     attacker to inject invalid characters such as CRLF. (CVE-2019-12387)

  - In Twisted Web through 19.10.0, there was an HTTP request splitting vulnerability. When presented with two     content-length headers, it ignored the first header. When the second content-length value was set to zero,     the request body was interpreted as a pipelined request. (CVE-2020-10108)

  - twisted is an event-driven networking engine written in Python. In affected versions twisted exposes     cookies and authorization headers when following cross-origin redirects. This issue is present in the     `twited.web.RedirectAgent` and `twisted.web. BrowserLikeRedirectAgent` functions. Users are advised to     upgrade. There are no known workarounds. (CVE-2022-21712)

  - Twisted is an event-based framework for internet applications. Started with version 0.9.4, when the host     header does not match a configured host `twisted.web.vhost.NameVirtualHost` will return a `NoResource`     resource which renders the Host header unescaped into the 404 response allowing HTML and script injection.
    In practice this should be very difficult to exploit as being able to modify the Host header of a normal     HTTP request implies that one is already in a privileged position. This issue was fixed in version     22.10.0rc1. There are no known workarounds. (CVE-2022-39348)

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