The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 35d1e192-628e-11ed-8c5e-641c67a117d8 advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

- IPython (Interactive Python) is a command shell for interactive computing in multiple programming
languages, originally developed for the Python programming language. Affected versions are subject to an
arbitrary code execution vulnerability achieved by not properly managing cross user temporary files. This
vulnerability allows one user to run code as another on the same machine. All users are advised to
upgrade. (CVE-2022-21699)
