The version of Fortigate installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FG-IR-21-222 advisory.

  • An improper neutralization of input during web page generation vulnerability [CWE-79] in FortiOS may allow an authenticated attacker to perform a stored cross site scripting (XSS) attack through the URI parameter via the Threat Feed IP address section of the Security Fabric External connectors. (CVE-2021-43080)

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