The version of thunderbird installed on the remote host is prior to 115.8.1-1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2-2024-2497 advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

- The encrypted subject of an email message could be incorrectly and permanently assigned to an arbitrary
other email message in Thunderbird's local cache. Consequently, when replying to the contaminated email
message, the user might accidentally leak the confidential subject to a third party. While this update
fixes the bug and avoids future message contamination, it does not automatically repair existing
contaminations. Users are advised to use the repair folder functionality, which is available from the
context menu of email folders, which will erase incorrect subject assignments. This vulnerability affects
Thunderbird < 115.8.1. (CVE-2024-1936)
