The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-2728-1 advisory.

Hanno Bck discovered that Bind incorrectly handled certain malformed keys when configured to perform     DNSSEC validation. A remote attacker could use this issue with specially crafted zone data to cause Bind     to crash, resulting in a denial of service.

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.
