The remote CentOS Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the CESA-2022:5235 advisory.
python: CRLF injection via HTTP request method in httplib/http.client (CVE-2020-26116)
python-urllib3: CRLF injection via HTTP request method (CVE-2020-26137)
python: Stack-based buffer overflow in PyCArg_repr in _ctypes/callproc.c (CVE-2021-3177)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
