The remote AlmaLinux 9 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALSA-2022:8393 advisory.

  - A vulnerability was found in logrotate in how the state file is created. The state file is used to prevent     parallel executions of multiple instances of logrotate by acquiring and releasing a file lock. When the     state file does not exist, it is created with world-readable permission, allowing an unprivileged user to     lock the state file, stopping any rotation. This flaw affects logrotate versions before 3.20.0.
    (CVE-2022-1348)

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