The version of F5 Networks BIG-IP installed on the remote host is prior to 14.1.5 / 15.1.6.1 / 16.1.3 / 17.0.0. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the K38893457 advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

- In BIG-IP Versions 16.1.x before 16.1.3, 15.1.x before 15.1.6.1, 14.1.x before 14.1.5, and all versions of
13.1.x, a vulnerability exists in undisclosed pages of the BIG-IP DNS Traffic Management User Interface
(TMUI) that allows an authenticated attacker with at least operator role privileges to cause the Tomcat
process to restart and perform unauthorized DNS requests and operations through undisclosed requests.
Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
