The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2017:3005 advisory.

    Red Hat CloudForms Management Engine delivers the insight, control, and automation needed to address the     challenges of managing virtual environments. CloudForms Management Engine is built on Ruby on Rails, a     model-view-controller (MVC) framework for web application development. Action Pack implements the     controller and the view components.

    The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: ansible-tower (3.1.5), cfme     (5.8.2.3), cfme-appliance (5.8.2.3), cfme-gemset (5.8.2.3), rabbitmq-server (3.6.9), rh-ruby23-rubygem-     nokogiri (1.8.1), supervisor (3.1.4). (BZ#1476286, BZ#1485484)

    Security Fix(es):

    * A flaw was found in Tower's interface with SCM repositories. If a Tower project (SCM repository)     definition does not have the 'delete before update' flag set, an attacker with commit access to the     upstream playbook source repository could create a Trojan playbook that, when executed by Tower, modifies     the checked out SCM repository to add git hooks. These git hooks could, in turn, cause arbitrary command     and code execution as the user Tower runs as. (CVE-2017-12148)

    * A vulnerability was found in the XML-RPC interface in supervisord. When processing malformed commands,     an attacker can cause arbitrary shell commands to be executed on the server as the same user as     supervisord. Exploitation requires the attacker to first be authenticated to the supervisord service.
    (CVE-2017-11610)

    The CVE-2017-12148 issue was discovered by Ryan Petrello (Red Hat).

    Additional Changes:

    This update also fixes several bugs and adds various enhancements. Documentation for these changes is     available from the Release Notes document linked to in the References section.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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