The remote Fedora 39 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2024-b1e16b4335 advisory.

  • HTTP/2 CONTINUATION DoS attack can cause Apache Traffic Server to consume more resources on the server.
    Version from 8.0.0 through 8.1.9, from 9.0.0 through 9.2.3 are affected. Users can set a new setting (proxy.config.http2.max_continuation_frames_per_minute) to limit the number of CONTINUATION frames per minute. ATS does have a fixed amount of memory a request can use and ATS adheres to these limits in previous releases. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 8.1.10 or 9.2.4 which fixes the issue.
    (CVE-2024-31309)

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