The version of openldap installed on the remote host is prior to 2.4.40-16.37. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS-2023-1804 advisory.

  • A vulnerability was found in openldap. This security flaw causes a null pointer dereference in ber_memalloc_x() function. (CVE-2023-2953)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
