The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2022:1263 advisory.

    The redhat-virtualization-host packages provide the Red Hat Virtualization Host.
    These packages include redhat-release-virtualization-host. Red Hat     Virtualization Hosts (RHVH) are installed using a special build of Red Hat     Enterprise Linux with only the packages required to host virtual machines.
    RHVH features a Cockpit user interface for monitoring the host's resources and performing administrative     tasks.
