The remote Oracle Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ELSA-2023-0016 advisory.

  • A type confusion issue was addressed with improved state handling. This issue is fixed in Safari 16.2, tvOS 16.2, macOS Ventura 13.1, iOS 15.7.2 and iPadOS 15.7.2, iOS 16.1.2. Processing maliciously crafted web content may lead to arbitrary code execution. Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been actively exploited against versions of iOS released before iOS 15.1… (CVE-2022-42856)

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