It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2-2024-2578 advisory.

EDK2 contains a vulnerability when S3 sleep is activated where an Attacker may cause a Division-By-Zero     due to a UNIT32 overflow via local access. A successful exploit of this vulnerability may lead to a loss     of Availability. (CVE-2024-1298)

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.
