The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLES15 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2021:1876-1 advisory.

  • The Alias feature in SnakeYAML before 1.26 allows entity expansion during a load operation, a related issue to CVE-2003-1564. (CVE-2017-18640)

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