The version of apr installed on the remote host is prior to 1.7.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SSA:2023-032-01 advisory.

  - When apr_time_exp*() or apr_os_exp_time*() functions are invoked with an invalid month field value in     Apache Portable Runtime APR 1.6.2 and prior, out of bounds memory may be accessed in converting this value     to an apr_time_exp_t value, potentially revealing the contents of a different static heap value or     resulting in program termination, and may represent an information disclosure or denial of service     vulnerability to applications which call these APR functions with unvalidated external input.
