The remote Oracle Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ELSA-2022-6381 advisory.

  • VMware Tools (12.0.0, 11.x.y and 10.x.y) contains a local privilege escalation vulnerability. A malicious actor with local non-administrative access to the Guest OS can escalate privileges as a root user in the virtual machine. (CVE-2022-31676)

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