The remote Oracle Linux 5 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ELSA-2015-1002 advisory.

  • The Floppy Disk Controller (FDC) in QEMU, as used in Xen 4.5.x and earlier and KVM, allows local guest users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write and guest crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via the (1) FD_CMD_READ_ID, (2) FD_CMD_DRIVE_SPECIFICATION_COMMAND, or other unspecified commands, aka VENOM. (CVE-2015-3456)

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