The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - gnutls: Heap read overflow in read-packet.c (CVE-2017-5337)

  - The TLS protocol 1.2 and earlier, as used in Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Qt, and other products, can     encrypt compressed data without properly obfuscating the length of the unencrypted data, which allows man-     in-the-middle attackers to obtain plaintext HTTP headers by observing length differences during a series     of guesses in which a string in an HTTP request potentially matches an unknown string in an HTTP header,     aka a CRIME attack. (CVE-2012-4929)

  - GnuTLS before 2.9.10 does not verify the activation and expiration dates of CA certificates, which allows     man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers via a certificate issued by a CA certificate that is (1) not     yet valid or (2) no longer valid. (CVE-2014-8155)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - libtasn1: asn1_get_bit_der() can return negative bit length (CVE-2014-3468)

  - gnutls: HMAC-SHA-384 vulnerable to Lucky thirteen attack due to use of wrong constant (CVE-2018-10845)

  - The asn1_get_length_der function in decoding.c in GNU Libtasn1 before 2.12, as used in GnuTLS before     3.0.16 and other products, does not properly handle certain large length values, which allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption and application crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted ASN.1 structure. (CVE-2012-1569)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.
