The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-2470-1 advisory.

Matt Mackall and Augie Fackler discovered that Git incorrectly handled certain filesystem paths. A remote     attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code if the Git tree is stored in an HFS+ or     NTFS filesystem. The remote attacker would need write access to a Git repository that the victim pulls     from.

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.
