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-3840-1 advisory.
Samuel Weiser discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled DSA signing. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a timing side-channel attack and recover private DSA keys. (CVE-2018-0734)
Samuel Weiser discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled ECDSA signing. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a timing side-channel attack and recover private ECDSA keys. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 18.10. (CVE-2018-0735)
Billy Bob Brumley, Cesar Pereida Garcia, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri, and Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya discovered that Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) architectures are vulnerable to side-channel leakage.
This issue is known as PortSmash. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a timing side- channel attack and recover private keys. (CVE-2018-5407)
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.
