An update of the httpd package has been released.

  • ap_escape_quotes() may write beyond the end of a buffer when given malicious input. No included modules pass untrusted data to these functions, but third-party / external modules may. This issue affects Apache HTTP Server 2.4.48 and earlier. (CVE-2021-39275)

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