The remote VMware ESXi host is version 5.1 prior to build 1900470. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities in the OpenSSL library :
An error exists in the function ‘ssl3_read_bytes’ that could allow data to be injected into other sessions or allow denial of service attacks. Note this issue is only exploitable if ‘SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS’ is enabled. (CVE-2010-5298)
An error exists in the function ‘do_ssl3_write’ that could allow a NULL pointer to be dereferenced leading to denial of service attacks. Note this issue is exploitable only if ‘SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS’ is enabled. (CVE-2014-0198)
An unspecified error exists that could allow an attacker to cause usage of weak keying material leading to simplified man-in-the-middle attacks.
(CVE-2014-0224)
An unspecified error exists related to anonymous ECDH ciphersuites that could allow denial of service attacks. Note this issue only affects OpenSSL TLS clients. (CVE-2014-3470)
