The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-3503-1 advisory.

It was discovered that Evince incorrectly handled printing certain DVI files. If a user were tricked into     opening and printing a specially-named DVI file, an attacker could use this issue to execute arbitrary     code.

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.
