The version of ca-certificates installed on the remote host is prior to 2023.2.68-1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2-2024-2607 advisory.

Certifi is a curated collection of Root Certificates for validating the trustworthiness of SSL     certificates while verifying the identity of TLS hosts. Certifi starting in 2021.05.30 and prior to     2024.07.4 recognized root certificates from `GLOBALTRUST`. Certifi 2024.07.04 removes root certificates     from `GLOBALTRUST` from the root store. These are in the process of being removed from Mozilla's trust     store. `GLOBALTRUST`'s root certificates are being removed pursuant to an investigation which identified     long-running and unresolved compliance issues. (CVE-2024-39689)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

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