"The version of Microsoft Visual Studio Code installed on the remote host is prior to 1.72.1.
It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A remote code execution vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this to bypass 
    authentication and execute unauthorized arbitrary commands. (CVE-2022-41034)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this to 
    disclose potentially sensitive information. (CVE-2022-41042)
	
  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this to gain 
    elevated privileges. (CVE-2022-41083)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported
version");
