Configuration Management / Web Server Uses Basic Authentication over HTTPS

The remote web server contains web pages that are protected by 'Basic' authentication over HTTPS.

While this is not in itself a security flaw, in some organizations, the use of 'Basic' authentication is discouraged as, depending on the underlying implementation, it may be vulnerable to account brute-forcing or may encourage Man-in-The-Middle (MiTM) attacks.

Make sure that the use of HTTP 'Basic' authentication is in line with your organization's security policy.
