The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4084-1 advisory.

It was discovered that Django incorrectly handled the Truncator function. A remote attacker could possibly     use this issue to cause Django to consume resources, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2019-14232)

It was discovered that Django incorrectly handled the strip_tags function. A remote attacker could     possibly use this issue to cause Django to consume resources, leading to a denial of service.
(CVE-2019-14233)

It was discovered that Django incorrectly handled certain lookups in the PostgreSQL support. A remote     attacker could possibly use this issue to perform SQL injection attacks. (CVE-2019-14234)

It was discovered that Django incorrectly handled certain invalid UTF-8 octet sequences. A remote attacker     could possibly use this issue to cause Django to consume resources, leading to a denial of service.
(CVE-2019-14235)

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.
