"The version of python3 installed on the remote host is prior to 3.7.16-1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability
as referenced in the ALAS2-2024-2687 advisory.

    The email module of Python through 3.11.3 incorrectly parses e-mail addresses that contain a special
    character. The wrong portion of an RFC2822 header is identified as the value of the addr-spec. In some
    applications, an attacker can bypass a protection mechanism in which application access is granted only
    after verifying receipt of e-mail to a specific domain (e.g., only @company.example.com addresses may be
    used for signup). This occurs in email/_parseaddr.py in recent versions of Python. (CVE-2023-27043)

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.");
