"The version of AOS installed on the remote host is prior to 7.0.1.13. It is, therefore, affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AOS-7.0.1.13 advisory.

  - Under certain circumstances, BIND is too lenient when accepting records from answers, allowing an attacker
    to inject forged data into the cache. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.11.0 through 9.16.50, 9.18.0
    through 9.18.39, 9.20.0 through 9.20.13, 9.21.0 through 9.21.12, 9.11.3-S1 through 9.16.50-S1, 9.18.11-S1
    through 9.18.39-S1, and 9.20.9-S1 through 9.20.13-S1. (CVE-2025-40778)

  - The Spring Framework annotation detection mechanism may not correctly resolve annotations on methods
    within type hierarchies with a parameterized super type with unbounded generics. This can be an issue if
    such annotations are used for authorization decisions. Your application may be affected by this if you are
    using Spring Security's @EnableMethodSecurity feature. You are not affected by this if you are not using
    @EnableMethodSecurity or if you do not use security annotations on methods in generic superclasses or
    generic interfaces. This CVE is published in conjunction with CVE-2025-41248
    https://spring.io/security/cve-2025-41248 . (CVE-2025-41249)

  - Apache CXF stores large stream based messages as temporary files on the local filesystem. A bug was
    introduced which means that the entire temporary file is read into memory and then logged. An attacker
    might be able to exploit this to cause a denial of service attack by causing an out of memory exception.
    In addition, it is possible to configure CXF to encrypt temporary files to prevent sensitive credentials
    from being cached unencrypted on the local filesystem, however this bug means that the cached files are
    written out to logs unencrypted. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 3.5.11, 3.6.6, 4.0.7 or
    4.1.1, which fixes this issue. (CVE-2025-48795)

  - Spring Framework MVC applications can be vulnerable to a Path Traversal Vulnerability when deployed on a
    non-compliant Servlet container. An application can be vulnerable when all the following are true: * the
    application is deployed as a WAR or with an embedded Servlet container * the Servlet container does not
    reject suspicious sequences https://jakarta.ee/specifications/servlet/6.1/jakarta-servlet-
    spec-6.1.html#uri-path-canonicalization * the application serves static resources
    https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/reference/web/webmvc/mvc-config/static-resources.html#page-title
    with Spring resource handling We have verified that applications deployed on Apache Tomcat or Eclipse
    Jetty are not vulnerable, as long as default security features are not disabled in the configuration.
    Because we cannot check exploits against all Servlet containers and configuration variants, we strongly
    recommend upgrading your application. (CVE-2025-41242)

  - libexpat in Expat before 2.7.2 allows attackers to trigger large dynamic memory allocations via a small
    document that is submitted for parsing. (CVE-2025-59375)

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