"The remote MiracleLinux 3 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2010-148:01 advisory.

    The GNU tar program saves many files together in one archive and can restore individual files (or all of
    the files) from that archive. Tar can also be used to add supplemental files to an archive and to update
    or list files in the archive. Tar includes multivolume support, automatic archive
    compression/decompression, the ability to perform remote archives, and the ability to perform incremental
    and full backups.
    If you want to use tar for remote backups, you also need to install the rmt package.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2007-4476
    Buffer overflow in the safer_name_suffix function in GNU tar has unspecified attack vectors and impact,
    resulting in a 'crashing stack.'
    CVE-2010-0624
    Heap-based buffer overflow in the rmt_read__ function in lib/rtapelib.c in the rmt client functionality in
    GNU tar before 1.23 and GNU cpio before 2.11 allows remote rmt servers to cause a denial of service
    (memory corruption) or possibly execute arbitrary code by sending more data than was requested, related to
    archive filenames that contain a : (colon) character.

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.");
