"The remote AlmaLinux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
ALSA-2022:2043 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in c-ares library, where a missing input validation check of host names returned by DNS
    (Domain Name Servers) can lead to output of wrong hostnames which might potentially lead to Domain
    Hijacking. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality and integrity as well as
    system availability. (CVE-2021-3672)

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