The version of tested product installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS-2020-1432 advisory.

  - In Lib/tarfile.py in Python through 3.8.3, an attacker is able to craft a TAR archive leading to an     infinite loop when opened by tarfile.open, because _proc_pax lacks header validation. (CVE-2019-20907)

  - Lib/ipaddress.py in Python through 3.8.3 improperly computes hash values in the IPv4Interface and     IPv6Interface classes, which might allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service if an application     is affected by the performance of a dictionary containing IPv4Interface or IPv6Interface objects, and this     attacker can cause many dictionary entries to be created. This is fixed in: v3.5.10, v3.5.10rc1; v3.6.12;
    v3.7.9; v3.8.4, v3.8.4rc1, v3.8.5, v3.8.6, v3.8.6rc1; v3.9.0, v3.9.0b4, v3.9.0b5, v3.9.0rc1, v3.9.0rc2.
    (CVE-2020-14422)

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