"The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 / 7 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced
in the RHSA-2017:1840 advisory.
The jackson-databind package provides general data-binding functionality for Jackson, which works on top
of Jackson core streaming API.
Security Fix(es):
* A deserialization flaw was discovered in the jackson-databind which could allow an unauthenticated user
to perform code execution by sending the maliciously crafted input to the readValue method of the
ObjectMapper. (CVE-2017-7525)
Red Hat would like to thank Liao Xinxi (NSFOCUS) for reporting this issue.
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.");
