"In versions of Apache CXF before 3.5.10, 3.6.5 and 4.0.6, a CXF HTTP client conduit may prevent HTTPClient instances
from being garbage collected and it is possible that memory consumption will continue to increase, eventually
causing the application to run out of memory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
