The remote Rocky Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RLSA-2021:0966 advisory.

  • A flaw was found in pki-core. An attacker who has successfully compromised a key could use this flaw to renew the corresponding certificate over and over again, as long as it is not explicitly revoked. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity. (CVE-2021-20179)

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