The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-7016-1 advisory.

Iggy Frankovic discovered that FRR incorrectly handled certain BGP messages. A remote attacker could     possibly use this issue to cause FRR to crash, resulting in a denial of service.

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.
