+	  <p>Under its default configuration, Cassandra binds an unauthenticated
+	    JMX/RMI interface to all network interfaces.  As RMI is an API for the
+	    transport and remote execution of serialized Java, anyone with access
+	    to this interface can execute arbitrary code as the running user.</p>
+	  <p>Mitigation:</p>
+	  <p>1.2.x has reached EOL, so users of <= 1.2.x are recommended to upgrade
+	    to a supported version of Cassandra, or manually configure encryption
+	    and authentication of JMX,
+	    (see https://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/JmxSecurity).</p>
+	  <p>2.0.x users should upgrade to 2.0.14</p>
+	  <p>2.1.x users should upgrade to 2.1.4</p>
+	  <p>Alternately, users of any version not wishing to upgrade can
+	    reconfigure JMX/RMI to enable encryption and authentication according
+	    to https://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/JmxSecurityor
