"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- Twisted is an event-based framework for internet applications. Started with version 0.9.4, when the host
header does not match a configured host `twisted.web.vhost.NameVirtualHost` will return a `NoResource`
resource which renders the Host header unescaped into the 404 response allowing HTML and script injection.
In practice this should be very difficult to exploit as being able to modify the Host header of a normal
HTTP request implies that one is already in a privileged position. This issue was fixed in version
22.10.0rc1. There are no known workarounds. (CVE-2022-39348)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
