"The version of OpenSSL installed on the remote host is prior to 1.0.1a. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as
referenced in the 1.0.1a advisory.

  - The asn1_d2i_read_bio function in crypto/asn1/a_d2i_fp.c in OpenSSL before 0.9.8v, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0i,
    and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1a does not properly interpret integer data, which allows remote attackers to conduct
    buffer overflow attacks, and cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified
    other impact, via crafted DER data, as demonstrated by an X.509 certificate or an RSA public key.
    (CVE-2012-2110)

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