It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2024-700 advisory.

    An attacker may cause an HTTP/2 endpoint to read arbitrary amounts of header data by sending an excessive     number of CONTINUATION frames. Maintaining HPACK state requires parsing and processing all HEADERS and     CONTINUATION frames on a connection. When a request's headers exceed MaxHeaderBytes, no memory is     allocated to store the excess headers, but they are still parsed. This permits an attacker to cause an     HTTP/2 endpoint to read arbitrary amounts of header data, all associated with a request which is going to     be rejected. These headers can include Huffman-encoded data which is significantly more expensive for the     receiver to decode than for an attacker to send. The fix sets a limit on the amount of excess header     frames we will process before closing a connection. (CVE-2023-45288)

    The protojson.Unmarshal function can enter an infinite loop when unmarshaling certain forms of invalid     JSON. This condition can occur when unmarshaling into a message which contains a google.protobuf.Any     value, or when the UnmarshalOptions.DiscardUnknown option is set. (CVE-2024-24786)

    Package jose aims to provide an implementation of the Javascript Object Signing and Encryption set of     standards. An attacker could send a JWE containing compressed data that used large amounts of memory and     CPU when decompressed by Decrypt or DecryptMulti. Those functions now return an error if the decompressed     data would exceed 250kB or 10x the compressed size (whichever is larger). This vulnerability has been     patched in versions 4.0.1, 3.0.3 and 2.6.3. (CVE-2024-28180)

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.
