"According to the version of the cracklib packages installed, the
EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following
vulnerability :

  - CrackLib tests passwords to determine whether they
    match certain security-oriented characteristics, with
    the purpose of stopping users from choosing passwords
    that are easy to guess. CrackLib performs several tests
    on passwords: it tries to generate words from a
    username and gecos entry and checks those words against
    the password it checks for simplistic patterns in
    passwords and it checks for the password in a
    dictionary.CrackLib is actually a library containing a
    particular C function which is used to check the
    password, as well as other C functions. CrackLib is not
    a replacement for a passwd program it must be used in
    conjunction with an existing passwd program.Install the
    cracklib package if you need a program to check users'
    passwords to see if they are at least minimally secure.
    If you install CrackLib, you will also want to install
    the cracklib-dicts package.Security Fix(es):Stack-based
    buffer overflow in the FascistGecosUser function in
    lib/fascist.c in cracklib allows local users to cause a
    denial of service (application crash) or gain
    privileges via a long GECOS field, involving
    longbuffer.(CVE-2016-6318)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues.");
