The remote host is missing an update for the 'evolution-data-server, libgdata' package(s) announced via the USN-1547-1 advisory. Vreixo Formoso discovered that the libGData library, as used by Evolution and other applications, did not properly verify SSL certificates. A remote attacker could exploit this to perform a man in the middle attack to view sensitive information or alter data transmitted via the GData protocol
