  - EDK2 is susceptible to a vulnerability in the Tcg2MeasureGptTable() function, allowing a user to trigger a     heap buffer overflow via a local network. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in a     compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and/or availability. (CVE-2022-36763)

  - EDK2 is susceptible to a vulnerability in the Tcg2MeasurePeImage() function, allowing a user to trigger a     heap buffer overflow via a local network. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in a     compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and/or availability. (CVE-2022-36764)

  - EDK2 is susceptible to a vulnerability in the CreateHob() function, allowing a user to trigger a integer     overflow to buffer overflow via a local network. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result     in a compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and/or availability. (CVE-2022-36765)

  - EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to an out-of-bounds read vulnerability when processing the IA_NA or     IA_TA option in a DHCPv6 Advertise message. This vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain     unauthorized access and potentially lead to a loss of Confidentiality. (CVE-2023-45229)

  - EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to a buffer overflow vulnerability via a long server ID option in     DHCPv6 client. This vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain unauthorized access and     potentially lead to a loss of Confidentiality, Integrity and/or Availability. (CVE-2023-45230)

  - EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to an out-of-bounds read vulnerability when processing Neighbor     Discovery Redirect message. This vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain unauthorized access     and potentially lead to a loss of Confidentiality. (CVE-2023-45231)

  - EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to an infinite loop vulnerability when parsing unknown options in     the Destination Options header of IPv6. This vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain     unauthorized access and potentially lead to a loss of Availability. (CVE-2023-45232)

  - EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to an infinite lop vulnerability when parsing a PadN option in the     Destination Options header of IPv6. This vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain     unauthorized access and potentially lead to a loss of Availability. (CVE-2023-45233)

  - EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to a buffer overflow vulnerability when processing DNS Servers     option from a DHCPv6 Advertise message. This vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain     unauthorized access and potentially lead to a loss of Confidentiality, Integrity and/or Availability.
    (CVE-2023-45234)

  - EDK2's Network Package is susceptible to a buffer overflow vulnerability when handling Server ID option     from a DHCPv6 proxy Advertise message. This vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to gain     unauthorized access and potentially lead to a loss of Confidentiality, Integrity and/or Availability.
    (CVE-2023-45235)

  - An insecure default to allow UEFI Shell in EDK2 was left enabled in Ubuntu's EDK2. This allows an OS-     resident attacker to bypass Secure Boot. (CVE-2023-48733)

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