The version of AOS installed on the remote host is prior to 7.5.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AOS-7.5.1 advisory.

  - A vulnerability has been found in GNU Binutils 2.45. The affected element is the function elf_swap_shdr in     the library bfd/elfcode.h of the component Linker. The manipulation leads to heap-based buffer overflow.
    The attack must be carried out locally. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The     identifier of the patch is 9ca499644a21ceb3f946d1c179c38a83be084490. To fix this issue, it is recommended     to deploy a patch. The code maintainer replied with [f]ixed for 2.46. (CVE-2025-11083)

  - 1. A cookie is set using the `secure` keyword for `https://target` 2. curl is redirected to or otherwise     made to speak with `http://target` (same hostname, but using clear text HTTP) using the same cookie set 3.
    The same cookie name is set - but with only a slash as path (`path=/`). Since this site is not secure,     the cookie *should* be ignored. 4. A bug in the path comparison logic makes curl read outside a heap     buffer boundary The bug either causes a crash or it potentially makes the comparison come to the wrong     conclusion and lets the clear-text site override the contents of the secure cookie, contrary to     expectations and depending on the memory contents immediately following the single-byte allocation that     holds the path. The presumed and correct behavior would be to plainly ignore the second set of the cookie     since it was already set as secure on a secure host so overriding it on an insecure host should not be     okay. (CVE-2025-9086)

  - Allocation of resources for multipart headers with insufficient limits enabled a DoS vulnerability in     Apache Commons FileUpload. This issue affects Apache Commons FileUpload: from 1.0 before 1.6; from     2.0.0-M1 before 2.0.0-M4. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 1.6 or 2.0.0-M4, which fix the     issue. (CVE-2025-48976)

  - Spring Framework MVC applications can be vulnerable to a Path Traversal Vulnerability when deployed on a     non-compliant Servlet container. An application can be vulnerable when all the following are true: * the     application is deployed as a WAR or with an embedded Servlet container * the Servlet container does not     reject suspicious sequences https://jakarta.ee/specifications/servlet/6.1/jakarta-servlet-     spec-6.1.html#uri-path-canonicalization * the application serves static resources     https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/reference/web/webmvc/mvc-config/static-resources.html#page-title     with Spring resource handling We have verified that applications deployed on Apache Tomcat or Eclipse     Jetty are not vulnerable, as long as default security features are not disabled in the configuration.
    Because we cannot check exploits against all Servlet containers and configuration variants, we strongly     recommend upgrading your application. (CVE-2025-41242)

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of     Oracle Java SE (component: Security). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 8u461,     8u461-perf, 11.0.28, 17.0.16, 21.0.8, 25; Oracle GraalVM for JDK: 17.0.16 and 21.0.8; Oracle GraalVM     Enterprise Edition: 21.3.15. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with     network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM     Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized creation, deletion     or modification access to critical data or all Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM for JDK, Oracle GraalVM     Enterprise Edition accessible data. Note: This vulnerability can be exploited by using APIs in the     specified Component, e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs. This vulnerability also     applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or     sandboxed Java applets, that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and     rely on the Java sandbox for security. (CVE-2025-53057)

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