The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM / 18.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4853-1 advisory.

It was discovered that liveMedia incorrectly handled certain network packets. An attacker could possibly     use this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-4013)

It was discovered that liveMedia incorrectly handled certain network sessions. An attacker could possibly     use this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2019-6256)

It was discovered that liveMedia incorrectly handled certain RTSP streamings. An attacker could possiby     use this issue to cause a denial of service or other unspecified impact. (CVE-2019-7314)

It was discovered that liveMedia incorrectly handled certain requests. An attacker could possibly use this     issue to obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2019-9215)

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.
