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

  - An issue was discovered in Mutt before 1.10.1 and NeoMutt before 2018-07-16. imap/command.c mishandles a     NO response without a message. (CVE-2018-14349)

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

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3719-3 advisory.

    USN-3719-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Mutt. Unfortunately, the fixes were not correctly applied to the     packaging for Mutt in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. This update corrects the oversight.

    We apologize for the inconvenience.
