therefore, affected by a vulnerability:

  - Prior to 3.14.0, attacker-controlled input included into multipart/payload headers can be used to modify
    a request to inject additional headers or similar. In the unlikely situation that an application is passing
    user-controlled strings into MultipartWriter.append(headers=...) or Payload.headers, then an attacker may
    be able to modify the request to inject headers or change the contents of the request. (CVE-2026-50269)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported
version number.");
