The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 21.10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5371-1 advisory.
An issue was discovered in OpenResty before 1.15.8.4. ngx_http_lua_subrequest.c allows HTTP request smuggling, as demonstrated by the ngx.location.capture API. (CVE-2020-11724)
ngx_http_lua_module (aka lua-nginx-module) before 0.10.16 in OpenResty allows unsafe characters in an argument when using the API to mutate a URI, or a request or response header. (CVE-2020-36309)
ALPACA is an application layer protocol content confusion attack, exploiting TLS servers implementing different protocols but using compatible certificates, such as multi-domain or wildcard certificates. A MiTM attacker having access to victim’s traffic at the TCP/IP layer can redirect traffic from one subdomain to another, resulting in a valid TLS session. This breaks the authentication of TLS and cross- protocol attacks may be possible where the behavior of one protocol service may compromise the other at the application layer. (CVE-2021-3618)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
