The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 3aee6703-8ff6-11f0-b8da-589cfc10a551 advisory.

    SO-AND-SO reports:
    In versions 2.4.12 and earlier, an unsafe deserialization and validation               of printer attributes causes null dereference in the libcups library. This               is a remote DoS vulnerability available in local subnet in default               configurations.

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

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

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - OpenPrinting CUPS is an open source printing system for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. In     versions 2.4.12 and earlier, an unsafe deserialization and validation of printer attributes causes null     dereference in the libcups library. This is a remote DoS vulnerability available in local subnet in     default configurations. It can cause the cups & cups-browsed to crash, on all the machines in local     network who are listening for printers (so by default for all regular linux machines). On systems where     the vulnerability CVE-2024-47176 (cups-filters 1.x/cups-browsed 2.x vulnerability) was not fixed, and the     firewall on the machine does not reject incoming communication to IPP port, and the machine is set to be     available to public internet, attack vector Network is possible. The current versions of CUPS and cups-     browsed projects have the attack vector Adjacent in their default configurations. Version 2.4.13     contains a patch for CVE-2025-58364. (CVE-2025-58364)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
