The version of Kubernetes installed on the remote host is a version prior to 1.13.10, or 1.14.x prior to 1.14.6, or 1.15.x prior to 1.15.3. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability
Note that Nessus has not attempted to exploit these issues but has instead relied only on the applicationโs self-reported version number.
