"The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as
referenced in the RHSA-2021:4623 advisory.

    FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), released under the Apache license.
    The xfreerdp client can connect to RDP servers such as Microsoft Windows machines, xrdp, and VirtualBox.

    Security Fix(es):

    * freerdp: improper client input validation for gateway connections allows to overwrite memory
    (CVE-2021-41159)

    * freerdp: improper region checks in all clients allow out of bound write to memory (CVE-2021-41160)

    For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and
    other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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