The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-2912-1 advisory.

Mariusz Ziulek discovered that libssh incorrectly handled certain packets. A remote attacker could     possibly use this issue to cause libssh to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2015-3146)

Aris Adamantiadis discovered that libssh incorrectly generated ephemeral secret keys of 128 bits instead     of the recommended 1024 or 2048 bits when using the diffie-hellman-group1 and diffie-hellman-group14     methods. If a remote attacker were able to perform a machine-in-the-middle attack, this flaw could be     exploited to view sensitive information. (CVE-2016-0739)

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

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