It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2023-2024-589 advisory.

  - The iconv() function in the GNU C Library versions 2.39 and older may overflow the output buffer passed to     it by up to 4 bytes when converting strings to the ISO-2022-CN-EXT character set, which may be used to     crash an application or overwrite a neighbouring variable. (CVE-2024-2961)

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