The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-2293-1 advisory.

Francisco Alonso discovered that the CUPS web interface incorrectly validated permissions on rss files. A     local attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass file permissions and read arbitrary files, possibly     leading to a privilege escalation.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
