The remote Oracle Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ELSA-2023-6372 advisory.

  • Heap/stack buffer overflow in the dlang_lname function in d-demangle.c in libiberty allows attackers to potentially cause a denial of service (segmentation fault and crash) via a crafted mangled symbol.
    (CVE-2021-3826)

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