"The version of junit installed on the remote Azure Linux 3.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected
by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2020-15250 advisory.

  - In JUnit4 from version 4.7 and before 4.13.1, the test rule TemporaryFolder contains a local information
    disclosure vulnerability. On Unix like systems, the system's temporary directory is shared between all
    users on that system. Because of this, when files and directories are written into this directory they
    are, by default, readable by other users on that same system. This vulnerability does not allow other
    users to overwrite the contents of these directories or files. This is purely an information disclosure
    vulnerability. This vulnerability impacts you if the JUnit tests write sensitive information, like API
    keys or passwords, into the temporary folder, and the JUnit tests execute in an environment where the OS
    has other untrusted users. Because certain JDK file system APIs were only added in JDK 1.7, this this fix
    is dependent upon the version of the JDK you are using. For Java 1.7 and higher users: this vulnerability
    is fixed in 4.13.1. For Java 1.6 and lower users: no patch is available, you must use the workaround
    below. If you are unable to patch, or are stuck running on Java 1.6, specifying the `java.io.tmpdir`
    system environment variable to a directory that is exclusively owned by the executing user will fix this
    vulnerability. For more information, including an example of vulnerable code, see the referenced GitHub
    Security Advisory. (CVE-2020-15250)

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