According to its banner, the version of PHP 5.6.x installed on the remote host is prior to 5.6.5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A double free vulnerability in the     zend_ts_hash_graceful_destroy function in     zend_ts_hash.c in the Zend Engine could allow a remote     attacker to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2014-9425)

  - An out-of-bounds read flaw in file 'cgi_main.c' exists     when nmap is used to process an invalid file that begins     with a hash character (#) but lacks a newline character.
    A remote attacker, using a specially crafted PHP file,     can exploit this vulnerability to disclose memory     contents, cause a denial of service, or possibly execute     code. (CVE-2014-9427)

  - The mconvert function in softmagic.c does not properly     handle a certain string-length field during a copy of a     truncated version of a Pascal string, which could allow     a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2014-9652)

  - An out-of-bounds read issue exists in the GetCode_()     function in 'gd_gif_in.c'. This allows a remote attacker     to disclose memory contents. (CVE-2014-9709)

  - A use-after-free memory error exists in the     process_nested_data() function in 'var_unserializer.re'     due to improper handling of duplicate numerical keys     within the serialized properties of an object. A remote     attacker, using a crafted unserialize method call, can     exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2015-0231)

  - A flaw exists in the exif_process_unicode() function in     'exif.c' that allows freeing an uninitialized pointer. A     remote attacker, using specially crafted EXIF data in a     JPEG image, can exploit this to cause a denial of     service or to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-0232)

Note that Nessus has not attempted to exploit these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
