The remote Fedora 40 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2025-d5fdbedb7f advisory.

    # rpki-client 9.5

    - rpki-client now includes `arin.tal` which is no longer legally encumbered. See     https://www.arin.net/announcements/20250116-tal/
    - rpki-client reports Certification Authorities that do not meaningfully participate in the RPKI as non-     functional CAs. By definition, a CA is non-functional if there is no currently valid Manifest. The number     of such CAs is printed at the end of each run and more detailed information is available in the JSON     (`-j`) and ometrics (`-m`) output.
    - OpenBSD reliability errata 014: Incorrect internal RRDP state handling in rpki-client can lead to a     denial of service. Affected are rpki-client versions 7.5 - 9.4.
    - Termination of `rsync` child processes with `SIGTERM` is no longer treated as an error if rpki-client     has sent this signal. This only affects `openrsync`.
    - Do not exit filemode with an error if a `.gbr` or a `.tak` object contains control characters in its     UTF-8 strings. Instead, only warn and emit a sanitized version in JSON output.

    Upcoming breaking change:

    - Starting with release 9.6, rpki-client will emit all key identifiers (AKI and SKI) encoded in JSON as     bare hex strings without colons.

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

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