The remote Debian 9 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the dla-2926 advisory.

  • In zsh before 5.8.1, an attacker can achieve code execution if they control a command output inside the prompt, as demonstrated by a %F argument. This occurs because of recursive PROMPT_SUBST expansion.
    (CVE-2021-45444)

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