The version of VirtualBox installed on the remote host is prior to 6.1.42 or prior to 7.0.6. It is, therefore, affected by an improper authorization vulnerability as referenced in the Jan 2023 CPU advisory:

  • Vulnerability in the Oracle VM VirtualBox product of Oracle Virtualization (component: Core). Supported versions that are affected are prior to 6.1.42 and prior to 7.0.6. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle VM VirtualBox executes to compromise Oracle VM VirtualBox. While the vulnerability is in Oracle VM VirtualBox, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle VM VirtualBox accessible data. Note: Applies to Windows only.
    (CVE-2023-21885)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
