The remote Ubuntu 24.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-7031-1 advisory.

It was discovered that Puma incorrectly handled parsing certain headers. A remote attacker could possibly     use this issue to overwrite header values set by intermediate proxies by providing duplicate headers     containing underscore characters.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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