The version of Mobatek MobaXterm installed on the remote host is prior to 8.3. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2015-7244 advisory.

  • The default configuration of the server in MobaXterm before 8.3 has a disabled Access Control setting and consequently does not require authentication for X11 connections, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands or obtain sensitive information via X11 packets. (CVE-2015-7244)

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