Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

 - Vino, possibly before 3.2, does not properly document that it opens ports in UPnP routers when the Configure network to automatically accept connections setting is enabled, which might make it easier for remote attackers to perform further attacks. (CVE-2011-1165)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

There is no known solution at this time.
