patch available.

  - The Netdata web application through 1.13.0 allows remote attackers to inject their own malicious HTML code
    into an imported snapshot, aka HTML Injection. Successful exploitation will allow attacker-supplied HTML
    to run in the context of the affected browser, potentially allowing the attacker to steal authentication
    credentials or to control how the site is rendered to the user. NOTE: the vendor disputes the risk because
    there is a clear warning next to the button for importing a snapshot (CVE-2019-9834)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
