The version of ruby installed on the remote host is prior to 3.0.4 / 3.1.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SSA:2022-103-01 advisory.

  • There is a buffer over-read in Ruby before 2.6.10, 2.7.x before 2.7.6, 3.x before 3.0.4, and 3.1.x before 3.1.2. It occurs in String-to-Float conversion, including Kernel#Float and String#to_f. (CVE-2022-28739)

  • A double free was found in the Regexp compiler in Ruby 3.x before 3.0.4 and 3.1.x before 3.1.2. If a victim attempts to create a Regexp from untrusted user input, an attacker may be able to write to unexpected memory locations. (CVE-2022-28738)

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