The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM / 18.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5681-1 advisory.

It was discovered that gThumb did not properly managed memory under certain circumstances. An attacker     could possibly use this issue to cause gThumb to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly     execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-18718)

It was discovered that gThumb did not properly managed memory when processing certain image files. If a     user were tricked into opening a specially crafted JPEG file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to     cause gThumb to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2019-20326)

It was discovered that gThumb did not properly handled certain malformed image files. If a user were     tricked into opening a specially crafted JPEG file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause     gThumb to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2020-36427)

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.
