"The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in
the RHSA-2015:1896 advisory.

    KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for
    Linux on AMD64 and Intel 64 systems. The qemu-kvm-rhev package provides the
    user-space component for running virtual machines using KVM.

    A heap buffer overflow flaw was found in the way QEMU's NE2000 NIC
    emulation implementation handled certain packets received over the
    network. A privileged user inside a guest could use this flaw to crash the
    QEMU instance (denial of service) or potentially execute arbitrary code on
    the host. (CVE-2015-5279)

    Red Hat would like to thank Qinghao Tang of QIHU 360 Inc. for reporting
    this issue.

    All users of qemu-kvm-rhev are advised to upgrade to these updated
    packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. After
    installing this update, shut down and restart all running virtual machines
    for this update to take effect.

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.");
