It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-458 advisory.

  • Use of Javaโ€™s default temporary directory for file creation in FileBackedOutputStream in Google Guava versions 1.0 to 31.1 on Unix systems and Android Ice Cream Sandwich allows other users and apps on the machine with access to the default Java temporary directory to be able to access the files created by the class. Even though the security vulnerability is fixed in version 32.0.0, we recommend using version 32.0.1 as version 32.0.0 breaks some functionality under Windows. (CVE-2023-2976)

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