The version of LibreOffice installed on the remote Windows host is 6.1.x prior to 6.1.3.2. It is, therefore, affected by an an arbitrary code execution vulnerability as a result of a path traversal vulnerability allowing the ability to run any local python script, in addition to being able to pass user defined parameters to default python modules and functions included with libreoffice.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
