It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-174 advisory.

    A flaw was found in Apache Ivy. With Apache Ivy 2.4.0, an optional packaging attribute was introduced that     allows artifacts to be unpacked on the fly if pack200 or zip packaging was used. This issue could allow a     malicious user to have unwanted access. Ivy users of version 2.4.0 to 2.5.0 should upgrade to Ivy 2.5.1.
    (CVE-2022-37865)

    When Apache Ivy downloads artifacts from a repository it stores them in the local file system based on a     user-supplied pattern that may include placeholders for artifacts coordinates like the organisation,     module or version. If said coordinates contain ../ sequences - which are valid characters for Ivy     coordinates in general - it is possible the artifacts are stored outside of Ivy's local cache or     repository or can overwrite different artifacts inside of the local cache. In order to exploit this     vulnerability an attacker needs collaboration by the remote repository as Ivy will issue http requests     containing .. sequences and a normal repository will not interpret them as part of the artifact     coordinates. Users of Apache Ivy 2.0.0 to 2.5.1 should upgrade to Ivy 2.5.1. (CVE-2022-37866)

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

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