The remote Oracle Linux 5 / 6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ELSA-2013-2512 advisory.

  • The msr_open function in arch/x86/kernel/msr.c in the Linux kernel before 3.7.6 allows local users to bypass intended capability restrictions by executing a crafted application as root, as demonstrated by msr32.c. (CVE-2013-0268)

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