"The remote host contains a Spring Framework version that is prior to 5.2.20 or 5.3.x prior to 5.3.17. It is, therefore,
affected by denial of service vulnerability. A remote, authenticated attacker could provide a specially crafted SpEL as a
routing expression that may result in denial of service condition.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
