Can someone provide me with more information on the actual vulnerability relating to
http://www.nessus.org/plugins/index.php?view=viewsrc&id=15640
It doesn't include any reference to an existing vulnerability.
No bugtragid, no cve, nothing, so what does this relate to.
The description and solution tell me something is wrong and to fix it, but I need information on the actual vuln involved.

on the URI.
An attacker might use this flaw to make it crash or even execute
arbitrary code on this host.


Solution : upgrade your software or contact your vendor and inform him
of this vulnerability

Risk factor : High";
