"The version of OpenSSL installed on the remote host is prior to 0.9.8j. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as
referenced in the 0.9.8j advisory.

  - OpenSSL 0.9.8i and earlier does not properly check the return value from the EVP_VerifyFinal function,
    which allows remote attackers to bypass validation of the certificate chain via a malformed SSL/TLS
    signature for DSA and ECDSA keys. (CVE-2008-5077)

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