"The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as
referenced in the RHSA-2016:1836 advisory.

    OpenShift Enterprise by Red Hat is the company's cloud computing Platform-
    as-a-Service (PaaS) solution designed for on-premise or private cloud
    deployments.

    Security Fix(es):

    * A flaw was found in Kibana's logging functionality. If custom logging
    output was configured in Kibana, private user data could be written to the
    Kibana log files. A system attacker could use this data to hijack sessions
    of other users when using Kibana behind some form of authentication such as
    Shield.

    * A cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was found in Kibana. A remote attacker
    could use this flaw to inject arbitrary web script into pages served to
    other users.

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

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