patch available.

  - Exiv2 is a command-line utility and C++ library for reading, writing, deleting, and modifying the metadata
    of image files. A floating point exception (FPE) due to an integer divide by zero was found in Exiv2
    versions v0.27.4 and earlier. The FPE is triggered when Exiv2 is used to print the metadata of a crafted
    image file. An attacker could potentially exploit the vulnerability to cause a denial of service, if they
    can trick the victim into running Exiv2 on a crafted image file. Note that this bug is only triggered when
    printing the interpreted (translated) data, which is a less frequently used Exiv2 operation that requires
    an extra command line option (`-p t` or `-P t`). The bug is fixed in version v0.27.5. (CVE-2021-34335)

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