The version of Kubernetes installed on the remote host is a version prior to 1.13.10, or 1.14.x prior to 1.14.6, or 1.15.x prior to 1.15.3. It is, therefore, affected by the following denial of service vulnerabilities :
Note that Nessus has not attempted to exploit these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

- A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability exists in HTTP/2 due to some HTTP/2 implementations inefficiently
handling a large queue of ping responses. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue, via
continual ping requests, to cause the system to stop responding. (CVE-2019-9512)
- A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability exists in HTTP/2 due to some HTTP/2 implementations inefficiently
handling a queue of RST_STREAM frames. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue, by
opening a number of streams and sending an invalid request over each stream, to cause the system to stop
responding. (CVE-2019-9514)
