The version of MariaDB installed on the remote host is prior to 10.0.28. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the mariadb-10028-release-notes advisory.

 - Vulnerability in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: Client mysqldump). Supported versions that are affected are 5.5.54 and earlier, 5.6.35 and earlier and 5.7.17 and earlier.
