"The version of macOS Server (formerly known as Mac OS X Server)
installed on the remote host is prior to 5.2. It is, therefore,
affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The Apache HTTP Server is affected by a
    man-in-the-middle vulnerability known as 'httpoxy' due
    to a failure to properly resolve namespace conflicts in
    accordance with RFC 3875 section 4.1.18. The HTTP_PROXY
    environment variable is set based on untrusted user data
    in the 'Proxy' header of HTTP requests. The HTTP_PROXY
    environment variable is used by some web client
    libraries to specify a remote proxy server. An
    unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a
    crafted 'Proxy' header in an HTTP request, to redirect
    an application's internal HTTP traffic to an arbitrary
    proxy server where it may be observed or manipulated.
    (CVE-2016-4694)

  - Multiple unspecified flaws exist that are related to
    the RC4 algorithm that allow an unauthenticated, remote
    attacker to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms.
    (CVE-2016-4754)");
