The remote host is missing an update for the 'libpng1.6' package(s) announced via the USN-3962-1 advisory. libpng incorrectly handled memory operations, allowing a remote attacker to crash the system or execute arbitrary code by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted PNG file. Affected packages are 'libpng1.6' on Ubuntu 18.04 and Ubuntu 18.10
