"The version of libcurl installed on the remote host is 7.64.1 prior to 8.22.0. It is, therefore, affected by
an information disclosure vulnerability:

  - A flaw in libcurl makes it wrongly reuse an HTTP connection setup for a given hostname using Negotiate
    authentication, when the initial request is done using empty credentials. This can make user B's request
    get sent over user A's previously authenticated connection. (CVE-2026-19931)

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