"The version of VMware Workstation installed on the remote host is 15.0.x prior to 15.5.0. It is, therefore, affected by
the following issues:

  - A use-after-free error in the virtual sound device that
    allows a local attacker on the guest machine with low
    privileges to execute code on the host. (CVE-2019-5527)

  - A denial of service vulnerability caused by improper
    handling of some IPv6 packets. An attacker can exploit
    this vulnerability to disallow network access for all
    guest machines using the VMware NAT mode. To exploit
    this vulnerability, the attacker must send specially
    crafted IPv6 packets from a guest machine when IPv6 mode
    for VMNAT is enabled. (CVE-2019-5535)

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