I got the same alert from Qualys (our security scan system) and contacted support about it. Turns out this is required for access to PXE/Netboot. There's no unexpected high security access like "/etc/passwd" found in results, only tftpboot, so it's not a security concern for us. We also only accept PXE/Netboot from wired connection from only our org's IP range, so access to the share is already limited.
