The version of exempi installed on the remote host is prior to 2.2.0-9. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2-2023-2260 advisory.

  • Buffer Overflow vulnerability in function ID3_Support::ID3v2Frame::getFrameValue in exempi 2.5.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via opening of crafted audio file with ID3V2 frame. (CVE-2020-18651)

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