The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3946-1 advisory.

It was discovered that rssh incorrectly handled certain command-line arguments and environment variables.
An authenticated user could bypass rssh's command restrictions, allowing an attacker to run arbitrary     commands.

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.
