The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libpdfbox-java' package(s) announced via the DLA-1547-1 advisory. A denial-of-service vulnerability in libpdfbox-java, a PDF library for Java, could have been exploited by a malicious PDF file to trigger an extremely long-running computation when parsing the page tree. For Debian 8 Jessie, this issue has been fixed in libpdfbox-java version 1:1.8.7+dfsg-1+deb8u2. It is recommended to upgrade the libpdfbox-java packages
