The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability that has been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  • velocity: arbitrary code execution when attacker is able to modify templates (CVE-2020-13936)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied on the package manager’s report that the package is installed.
