The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SUSE- SU-2024:1805-1 advisory.

- CVE-2024-2961: Fixed that the iconv() function in the GNU C Library may overflow the output buffer     passed to it by up to 4 bytes when converting strings to the ISO-2022-CN-EXT character set  (bsc#1223019).

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

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