The remote Fedora 40 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2024-e8f7a74693 advisory.
Update to 1.0.7
* CVE-2024-20506: Changed the logging module to disable following symlinks on Linux and Unix systems so as to prevent an attacker with existing access to the 'clamd' or 'freshclam' services from using a symlink to corrupt system files.
* CVE-2024-20505: Fixed a possible out-of-bounds read bug in the PDF file parser that could cause a denial-of-service (DoS) condition.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
