The version of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS running on the remote host is 8.1.x prior to 8.1.24 or 9.0.x prior to 9.0.17 or 9.1.x prior to 9.1.15 or 10.0.x prior to 10.0.12 or 10.1.x prior to 10.1.6. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
