It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2ANSIBLE2-2024-011 advisory.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the ALGnew function in block_templace.c in Python Cryptography Toolkit (aka     pycrypto) allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code as demonstrated by a crafted iv parameter to     cryptmsg.py. (CVE-2013-7459)

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.
