The remote Debian 11 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the dsa-5300 advisory.

  • A global buffer overflow was discovered in pngcheck function in pngcheck-2.4.0(5 patches applied) via a crafted png file. (CVE-2020-35511)

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