The remote Fedora 40 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2024-7d55be81bd advisory.

  • Heap Buffer Overflow vulnerability in qpdf 11.9.0 allows attackers to crash the application via the std::__shared_count() function at /bits/shared_ptr_base.h. (CVE-2024-24246)

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