"The version of Ollama installed on the remote host is prior to 0.1.34. It is, therefore, affected by a 
denial-of-service vulnerability:

  - An issue was discovered in Ollama before 0.1.34. The CreateModelHandler function uses os.Open to read a file until 
    completion. The req.Path parameter is user-controlled and can be set to /dev/random, which is blocking, causing 
    the goroutine to run infinitely (even after the HTTP request is aborted by the client). 

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