The version of libndp installed on the remote host is prior to 1.2-7. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2-2024-2571 advisory.

A vulnerability was found in libndp. A buffer overflow in NetworkManager that can be triggered by sending     a malformed IPv6 router advertisement packet via malicious user locally. This happens as libndp was not     validating correctly the route length information and hence leading to a flaw. This affects versions of     libndp >= 1.0. (CVE-2024-5564)

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

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