The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-5520-1 advisory.

It was discovered that HTTP-Daemon incorrectly handled certain crafted requests. A remote attacker could     possibly use this issue to perform an HTTP Request Smuggling attack.

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

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