"The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in
the RHSA-2015:0044 advisory.

    OpenStack Networking (neutron) is a pluggable, scalable, and API-driven
    system that provisions networking services to virtual machines. Its main
    function is to manage connectivity to and from virtual machines. As of Red
    Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 4.0, 'neutron' replaces 'quantum'
    as the core component of OpenStack Networking.

    A denial of service flaw was found in the way neutron handled the
    'dns_nameservers' parameter. By providing specially crafted
    'dns_nameservers' values, an authenticated user could use this flaw to
    crash the neutron service. (CVE-2014-7821)

    Red Hat would like to thank the OpenStack project for reporting this issue.
    Upstream acknowledges Henry Yamauchi, Charles Neill, and Michael Xin
    (Rackspace) as the original reporters.

    All openstack-neutron users are advised to upgrade to these updated
    packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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