The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201903-02 (Zsh: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code)

Two input validation errors have been discovered in how Zsh parses       scripts:
  Parsing a malformed shebang line could cause Zsh to call a program         listed in the second line (CVE-2018-0502)       Shebang lines longer than 64 characters are truncated         (CVE-2018-13259)   Impact :

An attacker could entice a user to execute a specially crafted script       using Zsh, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the       privileges of the process.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
