"The version of Curl installed on the remote host is between 7.74.0 and prior to 8.10.1. It is, therefore, affected by a 
potential minor DoS security problem when trying to use HTTPS when that no longer works or a cleartext transmission of 
data that was otherwise intended to possibly be protected.

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