The version of GitLab installed on the remote host is prior to 15.8.5, 15.9.4, 15.10.1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SECURITY-RELEASE-GITLAB-15-10-1-RELEASED advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
