The version of F5 Networks BIG-IP installed on the remote host is prior to 14.1.4.4 / 15.1.4 / 16.1.1 / 17.0.0. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the K61112120 advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
