New! Vulnerability Priority Rating (VPR)
Tenable calculates a dynamic VPR for every vulnerability. VPR combines vulnerability information with threat intelligence and machine learning algorithms to predict which vulnerabilities are most likely to be exploited in attacks. Read more about what VPR is and how it's different from CVSS.

Synopsis
Tenable Nessus running on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.
Description
According to its self-reported version, the Tenable Nessus application running on the remote host is prior to 8.0.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:
- Tenable Nessus contains a flaw in the bundled third-party component OpenSSL library's key handling during a TLS handshake that causes a denial of service vulnerability due to key handling during a TLS handshake. (CVE-2018-0732)
- Tenable Nessus contains a flaw in the bundled third-party component OpenSSL library's RSA Key generation algorithm that allows a cache timing side channel attack to recover the private key. (CVE-2018-0737)
Solution
Upgrade to Tenable Nessus version 8.0.0 or later.
