The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2019:0053 advisory.
Open vSwitch provides standard network bridging functions and support for the OpenFlow protocol for remote per-flow control of traffic.
Security Fix(es):
* openvswitch: Mishandle of group mods in lib/ofp-util.c:parse_group_prop_ntr_selection_method() allows for assertion failure (CVE-2018-17204)
* openvswitch: Error during bundle commit in ofproto/ofproto.c:ofproto_rule_insert__() allows for crash (CVE-2018-17205)
* openvswitch: Buffer over-read in lib/ofp-actions.c:decode_bundle() (CVE-2018-17206)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
