The version of nginx installed on the remote host is prior to 1.22.1-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2NGINX1-2023-001 advisory.

    NGINX Open Source before versions 1.23.2 and 1.22.1, NGINX Open Source Subscription before versions R2 P1     and R1 P1, and NGINX Plus before versions R27 P1 and R26 P1 have a vulnerability in the module     ngx_http_mp4_module that might allow a local attacker to corrupt NGINX worker memory, resulting in its     termination or potential other impact using a specially crafted audio or video file. The issue affects     only NGINX products that are built with the ngx_http_mp4_module, when the mp4 directive is used in the     configuration file. Further, the attack is possible only if an attacker can trigger processing of a     specially crafted audio or video file with the module ngx_http_mp4_module. (CVE-2022-41741)

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.
