The remote SUSE Linux SUSE15 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2022:10031-1 advisory.

  • The make distcheck rule in GNU Automake before 1.11.6 and 1.12.x before 1.12.2 grants world-writable permissions to the extraction directory, which introduces a race condition that allows local users to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors. (CVE-2012-3386)

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