"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.04 / MAIN 5.04, has fribidi packages installed that are affected
by a vulnerability:

  - A buffer overflow in the
    fribidi_get_par_embedding_levels_ex() function in
    lib/fribidi-bidi.c of GNU FriBidi through 1.0.7 allows
    an attacker to cause a denial of service or possibly
    execute arbitrary code by delivering crafted text
    content to a user, when this content is then rendered by
    an application that uses FriBidi for text layout
    calculations. Examples include any GNOME or GTK+ based
    application that uses Pango for text layout, as this
    internally uses FriBidi for bidirectional text layout.
    For example, the attacker can construct a crafted text
    file to be opened in GEdit, or a crafted IRC message to
    be viewed in HexChat. (CVE-2019-18397)

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