The version of zlib installed on the remote host is prior to 1.2.12. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SSA:2022-087-01 advisory.

  • zlib 1.2.11 allows memory corruption when deflating (i.e., when compressing) if the input has many distant matches. (CVE-2018-25032)

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