The Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 runtime installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities including the following:
A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability exists in Microsoft Visual Studio 2019. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue to cause the application to stop responding. (CVE-2021-26423)
An information disclosure vulnerability exists in Microsoft Visual Studio 2019. An authenticated, local attacker can exploit this to disclose potentially sensitive information. (CVE-2021-34532)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version
