"The remote MiracleLinux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2009-392:01 advisory.

    MySQL is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server. MySQL is a client/server implementation
    consisting of a server daemon (mysqld) and many different client programs and libraries. The base package
    contains the MySQL client programs, the client shared libraries, and generic MySQL files.
    Security bugs fixed by this release:
    CVE-2008-2079
    MySQL 4.1.x before 4.1.24, 5.0.x before 5.0.60, 5.1.x before 5.1.24, and 6.0.x before 6.0.5 allows local
    users to bypass certain privilege checks by calling CREATE TABLE on a MyISAM table with modified (1) DATA
    DIRECTORY or (2) INDEX DIRECTORY arguments that are within the MySQL home data directory, which can point
    to tables that are created in the future.
    CVE-2008-3963
    MySQL 5.0 before 5.0.66, 5.1 before 5.1.26, and 6.0 before 6.0.6 does not properly handle a b'' (b single-
    quote single-quote) token, aka an empty bit-string literal, which allows remote attackers to cause a
    denial of service (daemon crash) by using this token in a SQL statement.
    CVE-2008-4456
    Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the command-line client in MySQL 5.0.26 through 5.0.45, and
    other versions including versions later than 5.0.45, when the --html option is enabled, allows attackers
    to inject arbitrary web script or HTML by placing it in a database cell, which might be accessed by this
    client when composing an HTML document. NOTE: as of 20081031, the issue has not been fixed in MySQL
    5.0.67.
    CVE-2009-2446
    Multiple format string vulnerabilities in the dispatch_command function in libmysqld/sql_parse.cc in
    mysqld in MySQL 4.0.0 through 5.0.83 allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (daemon
    crash) and possibly have unspecified other impact via format string specifiers in a database name in a (1)
    COM_CREATE_DB or (2) COM_DROP_DB request. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party
    information.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
