The remote Oracle Linux 5 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ELSA-2014-11431 advisory.

  - kernel/auditsc.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.5, when CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL is enabled with certain     syscall rules, allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive single-bit values from kernel memory or     cause a denial of service (OOPS) via a large value of a syscall number. (CVE-2014-3917)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
