24.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-8779-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Bubblewrap incorrectly handled certain temporary directories. A local attacker
    could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. This issue only
    affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. (CVE-2019-12439)

    It was discovered that Bubblewrap incorrectly handled certain symlinks during sandbox setup. A local
    attacker could possibly use this issue to create files outside of the sandbox. (CVE-2026-87766)

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.");
