The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3554-1 advisory.

It was discovered that curl incorrectly handled certain data. An attacker could possibly use this to cause     a denial of service or even to get access to sensitive data. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and     Ubuntu 17.10.

It was discovered that curl could accidentally leak authentication data. An attacker could possibly use     this to get access to sensitive information. (CVE-2018-1000007)

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.
