"The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
USN-4713-2 advisory.

  - In drivers/target/target_core_xcopy.c in the Linux kernel before 5.10.7, insufficient identifier checking
    in the LIO SCSI target code can be used by remote attackers to read or write files via directory traversal
    in an XCOPY request, aka CID-2896c93811e3. For example, an attack can occur over a network if the attacker
    has access to one iSCSI LUN. The attacker gains control over file access because I/O operations are
    proxied via an attacker-selected backstore. (CVE-2020-28374)

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