The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3827-1 advisory.
Florian Stuelpner discovered that Samba incorrectly handled CNAME records. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause Samba to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2018-14629)
Alex MacCuish discovered that Samba incorrectly handled memory when configured to accept smart-card authentication. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Samba to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2018-16841)
Garming Sam discovered that Samba incorrectly handled memory when processing LDAP searches. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Samba to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2018-16851)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
