Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

Summary :

The remote web server contains an application server that is prone to
a denial of service issue.

Description :

The remote web server is Zope < 2.2.5. Such versions permit any Zope
user to create a denial of service by modifying Zope data structures,
thus rendering the site unusable.

*** Since Nessus solely relied on the version number of your server,
*** consider this a false positive if you applied the hotfix already.

Upgrade to Zope 2.2.5 or later.
