There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - The default BKS keystore use an HMAC that is only 16 bits long, which can allow an attacker to compromise
    the integrity of a BKS keystore. Bouncy Castle release 1.47 changes the BKS format to a format which uses
    a 160 bit HMAC instead. This applies to any BKS keystore generated prior to BC 1.47. For situations where
    people need to create the files for legacy reasons a specific keystore type "BKS-V1" was introduced in
    1.49. It should be noted that the use of "BKS-V1" is discouraged by the library authors and should only be
    used where it is otherwise safe to do so, as in where the use of a 16 bit checksum for the file integrity
    check is not going to cause a security issue in itself. (CVE-2018-5382)

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2018:2927 advisory.

    Red Hat Satellite is a systems management tool for Linux-based infrastructure.
    It allows for provisioning, remote management, and monitoring of multiple Linux deployments with a single     centralized tool.
