"The version of nginx installed on the remote host is prior to 1.22.1-1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as
referenced in the ALAS2NGINX1-2024-007 advisory.

    NGINX Open Source and NGINX Plus have a vulnerability in the ngx_http_mp4_module, which might allow an
    attacker to over-read NGINX worker memory resulting in its termination, using a specially crafted mp4
    file. The issue only affects NGINX if it is built with the ngx_http_mp4_module and the mp4 directive is
    used in the configuration file. Additionally, the attack is possible only if an attacker can trigger the
    processing of a specially crafted mp4 file with the ngx_http_mp4_module.  Note: Software versions which
    have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated. (CVE-2024-7347)

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.");
