The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5543-1 advisory. Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number. Update the affected packages

vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5543-1 advisory.
Yu Zhang and Nanyu Zhong discovered that Net-SNMP incorrectly handled memory operations when processing
certain requests. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause Net-SNMP to crash, resulting in a denial
of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.
