The version of glib2 installed on the remote host is prior to 2.56.1-9. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2023-2107 advisory.

  • PCRE before 8.38 mishandles the [: and \ substrings in character classes, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (uninitialized memory read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by a JavaScript RegExp object encountered by Konqueror.
    (CVE-2015-8390)

  • PCRE before 8.38 mishandles the (?(<digits>) and (?(R<digits>) conditions, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (integer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by a JavaScript RegExp object encountered by Konqueror.
    (CVE-2015-8394)

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