The remote SUSE Linux SUSE15 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2021:1815-1 advisory.

  • A security issue in nginx resolver was identified, which might allow an attacker who is able to forge UDP packets from the DNS server to cause 1-byte memory overwrite, resulting in worker process crash or potential other impact. (CVE-2021-23017)

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