The remote Debian 10 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the dla-3330 advisory.

  • Amanda 3.5.1 allows privilege escalation from the regular user backup to root. The SUID binary located at /lib/amanda/rundump will execute /usr/sbin/dump as root with controlled arguments from the attacker which may lead to escalation of privileges, denial of service, and information disclosure. (CVE-2022-37704)

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