The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 23.10 / 24.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-6771-1 advisory.

  • Passing a heavily nested list to sqlparse.parse() leads to a Denial of Service due to RecursionError.
    (CVE-2024-4340)

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