Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora update system website.
Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLES15 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2021:2454-1 advisory.

  - Xfig fig2dev 3.2.7a has a stack-based buffer overflow in the calc_arrow function in bound.c.
    (CVE-2019-14275)

  - read_textobject in read.c in Xfig fig2dev 3.2.7b has a stack-based buffer overflow because of an incorrect     sscanf. (CVE-2019-19555)

  - make_arrow in arrow.c in Xfig fig2dev 3.2.7b allows a segmentation fault and out-of-bounds write because     of an integer overflow via a large arrow type. (CVE-2019-19746)

  - read_colordef in read.c in Xfig fig2dev 3.2.7b has an out-of-bounds write. (CVE-2019-19797)

  - An Out of Bounds flaw was found fig2dev version 3.2.8a. A flawed bounds check in read_objects() could     allow an attacker to provide a crafted malicious input causing the application to either crash or in some     cases cause memory corruption. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to integrity as well as     system availability. (CVE-2021-3561)

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

The version of transfig installed on the remote host is prior to 3.2.7b-2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2020-1398 advisory.

    read_colordef in read.c in Xfig fig2dev 3.2.7b has an out-of-bounds write. (CVE-2019-19797)

    make_arrow in arrow.c in Xfig fig2dev 3.2.7b allows a segmentation fault and out-of-bounds write because     of an integer overflow via a large arrow type. (CVE-2019-19746)

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.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - make_arrow in arrow.c in Xfig fig2dev 3.2.7b allows a segmentation fault and out-of-bounds write because     of an integer overflow via a large arrow type. (CVE-2019-19746)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
