The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202211-02 (lesspipe: Arbitrary Code Exeecution)

  • lesspipe before 2.06 allows attackers to execute code via Perl Storable (pst) files, because of deserialized object destructor execution via a key/value pair in a hash. (CVE-2022-44542)

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