Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Fedora 37 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2022-12721789aa advisory.

 Security: processing of a specially crafted mp4 file by the ngx_http_mp4_module might cause a worker process crash, worker process memory disclosure, or might have potential other impact (CVE-2022-41741, CVE-2022-41742).

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

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