The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / openSUSE 15 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2023:0492-1 advisory.

  • A denial of service vulnerability present in ActiveRecordโ€™s PostgreSQL adapter <7.0.4.1 and <6.1.7.1. When a value outside the range for a 64bit signed integer is provided to the PostgreSQL connection adapter, it will treat the target column type as numeric. Comparing integer values against numeric values can result in a slow sequential scan resulting in potential Denial of Service. (CVE-2022-44566)

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