"The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2011-73:01 advisory.

    Mailman is software to help manage email discussion lists, much like Majordomo and Smartmail. Unlike most
    similar products, Mailman gives each mailing list a webpage, and allows users to subscribe, unsubscribe,
    etc. over the Web. Even the list manager can administer his or her list entirely from the Web. Mailman
    also integrates most things people want to do with mailing lists, including archiving, mail - news
    gateways, and so on.
    Documentation can be found in: /usr/share/doc/mailman-2.1.9
    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2010-3089
    Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in GNU Mailman before 2.1.14rc1 allow remote
    authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors involving (1) the list information
    field or (2) the list description field.
    CVE-2011-0707
    Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Cgi/confirm.py in GNU Mailman 2.1.14 and earlier
    allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) full name or (2) username field
    in a confirmation message.

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.");
