"The version of pcs installed on the remote host is prior to 0.9.169-3. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as
referenced in the ALAS2-2025-2853 advisory.

    Versions of the package sinatra from 0.0.0 are vulnerable to Reliance on Untrusted Inputs in a Security
    Decision via the X-Forwarded-Host (XFH) header. When making a request to a method with redirect applied,
    it is possible to trigger an Open Redirect Attack by inserting an arbitrary address into this header. If
    used for caching purposes, such as with servers like Nginx, or as a reverse proxy, without handling the
    X-Forwarded-Host header, attackers can potentially exploit Cache Poisoning or Routing-based SSRF.
    (CVE-2024-21510)

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.");
