In scanning the proxy server where I have HAVP installed using Nessus, I'm getting this vulnerability:
"Usable remote proxy on any port

(more lines)
Solution: reconfigure your proxy so that it only accepts
connections against non-dangerous ports (> 1024).
Risk factor : High
Nessus ID : 10193"
Is this vulnerability real? What solution could you suggest me to solve this issue? Only with the Nessus 3 client the warning appears, nessuswx-1.4.5 (not longer developed) doesn't shows the alert (the server is (Nessus) 3.0.5. [build 258] for Linux).
Thank you,
Pablo Chamorro
