The version of MariaDB installed on the remote host is prior to 5.5.60. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the mariadb-5560-release-notes advisory.

  - Vulnerability in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: Server: DDL). Supported     versions that are affected are 5.5.59 and prior, 5.6.39 and prior and 5.7.21 and prior. Easily exploitable     vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise     MySQL Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized read access to a subset     of MySQL Server accessible data. (CVE-2018-2813)

  - Vulnerability in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: Server: Replication). Supported     versions that are affected are 5.5.59 and prior, 5.6.39 and prior and 5.7.21 and prior. Difficult to     exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with logon to the infrastructure where MySQL Server     executes to compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than     the attacker and while the vulnerability is in MySQL Server, attacks may significantly impact additional     products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of MySQL Server. (CVE-2018-2755)

  - Vulnerability in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: Client programs). Supported     versions that are affected are 5.5.59 and prior, 5.6.39 and prior and 5.7.21 and prior. Difficult to     exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to     compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to     cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of MySQL Server. (CVE-2018-2761)

  - Vulnerability in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: Server: Security: Encryption).
    Supported versions that are affected are 5.5.60 and prior, 5.6.40 and prior and 5.7.22 and prior.
    Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via multiple     protocols to compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized     read access to a subset of MySQL Server accessible data. (CVE-2018-2767)

  - Vulnerability in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: Server: Locking). Supported     versions that are affected are 5.5.59 and prior, 5.6.39 and prior and 5.7.21 and prior. Difficult to     exploit vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to     compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to     cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of MySQL Server. (CVE-2018-2771)

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