The remote Ubuntu 24.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-6815-1 advisory.

Xiantong Hou discovered that AOM did not properly handle certain malformed media files. If an application     using AOM opened a specially crafted file, a remote attacker could cause a denial of service, or possibly     execute arbitrary code.

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.
