The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4587-1 advisory.

Nicolas Ruff discovered that iTALC had buffer overflows, divide-by-zero errors and didn't check malloc     return values. A remote attacker could use these issues to cause a denial of service or possibly execute     arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-6051, CVE-2014-6052, CVE-2014-6053, CVE-2014-6054, CVE-2014-6055)

Josef Gajdusek discovered that iTALC had heap-based buffer overflow vulnerabilities. A remote attacker     could used these issues to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-9941,     CVE-2016-9942)

It was discovered that iTALC had an out-of-bounds write, multiple heap out-of-bounds writes, an infinite     loop, improper initializations, and null pointer vulnerabilities. A remote attacker could used these     issues to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-15127, CVE-2018-20019,     CVE-2018-20020, CVE-2018-20021, CVE-2018-20022, CVE-2018-20023, CVE-2018-20024, CVE-2018-20748,     CVE-2018-20749, CVE-2018-20750, CVE-2018-7225, CVE-2019-15681)

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.
