application running on the remote web server is prior to 3.1.1.
It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including
cross-site scripting (XSS) and cross-site request forgery (XSRF),
and a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead
relied only on the application's self-reported version number.");
