The version of the remote MongoDB server is 2.4 or 2.6. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability in mongod. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this, via authenticating against a non-existent database to cause a memory exhaustion, denying service to legitimate users.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
