The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5300-1 advisory.
It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled certain scripts. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2015-9253, CVE-2017-8923, CVE-2017-9118, CVE-2017-9120)
It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled certain inputs. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service, or possibly obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2017-9119)
It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled certain scripts with XML parsing functions. An attacker could possibly use this issue to obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2021-21707)
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.
