"The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as
referenced in the USN-5967-1 advisory.

  - A prototype pollution vulnerability has been found in `object-path` <= 0.11.4 affecting the `set()`
    method. The vulnerability is limited to the `includeInheritedProps` mode (if version >= 0.11.0 is used),
    which has to be explicitly enabled by creating a new instance of `object-path` and setting the option
    `includeInheritedProps: true`, or by using the default `withInheritedProps` instance. The default
    operating mode is not affected by the vulnerability if version >= 0.11.0 is used. Any usage of `set()` in
    versions < 0.11.0 is vulnerable. The issue is fixed in object-path version 0.11.5 As a workaround, don't
    use the `includeInheritedProps: true` options or the `withInheritedProps` instance if using a version >=
    0.11.0. (CVE-2020-15256)

  - This affects the package object-path before 0.11.6. A type confusion vulnerability can lead to a bypass of
    CVE-2020-15256 when the path components used in the path parameter are arrays. In particular, the
    condition currentPath === '__proto__' returns false if currentPath is ['__proto__']. This is because the
    === operator returns always false when the type of the operands is different. (CVE-2021-23434)

  - object-path is vulnerable to Improperly Controlled Modification of Object Prototype Attributes ('Prototype
    Pollution') (CVE-2021-3805)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
