The version of AHV installed on the remote host is prior to AHV-10.3.0.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AHV-10.3.0.1 advisory.

  - inftrees.c in zlib 1.2.8 might allow context-dependent attackers to have unspecified impact by leveraging     improper pointer arithmetic. (CVE-2016-9840)

  - Sudo before 1.9.17p1, when used with a sudoers file that specifies a host that is neither the current host     nor ALL, allows listed users to execute commands on unintended machines. (CVE-2025-32462)

  - A flaw was found in linux-pam. The module pam_namespace may use access user-controlled paths without     proper protection, allowing local users to elevate their privileges to root via multiple symlink attacks     and race conditions. (CVE-2025-6020)

  - Allows modifying some file metadata (e.g. last modified) with filter=data or file permissions (chmod)     with filter=tar of files outside the extraction directory. You are affected by this vulnerability if     using the tarfile module to extract untrusted tar archives using TarFile.extractall() or TarFile.extract()     using the filter= parameter with a value of data or tar. See the tarfile extraction filters     documentation https://docs.python.org/3/library/tarfile.html#tarfile-extraction-filter for more     information. Only Python versions 3.12 or later are affected by these vulnerabilities, earlier versions     don't include the extraction filter feature. Note that for Python 3.14 or later the default value of     filter= changed from no filtering to `data, so if you are relying on this new default behavior then     your usage is also affected. Note that none of these vulnerabilities significantly affect the installation     of source distributions which are tar archives as source distributions already allow arbitrary code     execution during the build process. However when evaluating source distributions it's important to avoid     installing source distributions with suspicious links. (CVE-2024-12718)

  - Allows the extraction filter to be ignored, allowing symlink targets to point outside the destination     directory, and the modification of some file metadata. You are affected by this vulnerability if using the     tarfile module to extract untrusted tar archives using TarFile.extractall() or TarFile.extract() using the     filter= parameter with a value of data or tar. See the tarfile extraction filters documentation     https://docs.python.org/3/library/tarfile.html#tarfile-extraction-filter for more information. Note that     for Python 3.14 or later the default value of filter= changed from no filtering to `data, so if you     are relying on this new default behavior then your usage is also affected.

However when     evaluating source distributions it's important to avoid installing source distributions with suspicious     links. (CVE-2025-4138, CVE-2025-4330)

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

The version of AOS installed on the remote host is prior to 7.3.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AOS-7.3.1 advisory.

  - LZ4 before 1.9.2 has a heap-based buffer overflow in LZ4_write32 (related to LZ4_compress_destSize),     affecting applications that call LZ4_compress_fast with a large input. (This issue can also lead to data     corruption.) NOTE: the vendor states only a few specific / uncommon usages of the API are at risk.
    (CVE-2019-17543)

  - There exists a vulnerability in SQLite versions before 3.50.2 where the number of aggregate terms could     exceed the number of columns available. This could lead to a memory corruption issue. We recommend     upgrading to version 3.50.2 or above. (CVE-2025-6965)

  - A flaw was found in linux-pam. The module pam_namespace may use access user-controlled paths without     proper protection, allowing local users to elevate their privileges to root via multiple symlink attacks     and race conditions. (CVE-2025-6020)
