The remote host is missing an update for the 'axis'
package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Vulnerability Insight:
Apache Axis is an implementation of SOAP
(Simple Object Access Protocol). It can be used to build both web service clients
and servers.

X.509 certificate subject's Common Name (CN) field. A man-in-the-middle
attacker could use this flaw to spoof an SSL server using a specially
crafted X.509 certificate. (CVE-2014-3596)
For additional information on this flaw, refer to the Knowledgebase article

This issue was discovered by David Jorm and Arun Neelicattu of Red Hat

All axis users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to correct this issue. Applications using Apache
Axis must be restarted for this update to take effect.
