"The remote MiracleLinux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2011-194:03 advisory.

    The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of any Linux operating system.  The
    kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system:  memory allocation, process allocation, device
    input and output, etc.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2010-4346
    The install_special_mapping function in mm/mmap.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc6 does not make an
    expected security_file_mmap function call, which allows local users to bypass intended mmap_min_addr
    restrictions and possibly conduct NULL pointer dereference attacks via a crafted assembly-language
    application.
    CVE-2011-0521
    The dvb_ca_ioctl function in drivers/media/dvb/ttpci/av7110_ca.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.38-rc2
    does not check the sign of a certain integer field, which allows local users to cause a denial of service
    (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a negative value.
    CVE-2011-1010
    Buffer overflow in the mac_partition function in fs/partitions/mac.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37.2
    allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a
    malformed Mac OS partition table.
    CVE-2011-1090
    The __nfs4_proc_set_acl function in fs/nfs/nfs4proc.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.38 stores NFSv4 ACL
    data in memory that is allocated by kmalloc but not properly freed, which allows local users to cause a
    denial of service (panic) via a crafted attempt to set an ACL.
    CVE-2011-1478
    No description available at the time of writing, please refer to the CVE links below.

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
