"The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a
vulnerability as referenced in the 5a1c2e06-3fb7-11ed-a402-b42e991fc52e advisory.

  - A vulnerability named 'Non-Responsive Delegation Attack' (NRDelegation Attack) has been discovered in
    various DNS resolving software. The NRDelegation Attack works by having a malicious delegation with a
    considerable number of non responsive nameservers. The attack starts by querying a resolver for a record
    that relies on those unresponsive nameservers. The attack can cause a resolver to spend a lot of
    time/resources resolving records under a malicious delegation point where a considerable number of
    unresponsive NS records reside. It can trigger high CPU usage in some resolver implementations that
    continually look in the cache for resolved NS records in that delegation. This can lead to degraded
    performance and eventually denial of service in orchestrated attacks. Unbound does not suffer from high
    CPU usage, but resources are still needed for resolving the malicious delegation. Unbound will keep trying
    to resolve the record until hard limits are reached. Based on the nature of the attack and the replies,
    different limits could be reached. From version 1.16.3 on, Unbound introduces fixes for better performance
    when under load, by cutting opportunistic queries for nameserver discovery and DNSKEY prefetching and
    limiting the number of times a delegation point can issue a cache lookup for missing records.
    (CVE-2022-3204)

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