  - OTP is a set of Erlang libraries, which consists of the Erlang runtime system, a number of ready-to-use components
    mainly written in Erlang, and a set of design principles for Erlang programs. A regression was introduced into the
    ssl application of OTP starting at OTP-25.3.2.8, OTP-26.2, and OTP-27.0, resulting in a server or client verifying
    the peer when incorrect extended key usage is presented (i.e., a server will verify a client if they have server
    auth ext key usage and vice versa). (CVE-2024-53846)

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