"The remote MiracleLinux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
AXSA:2012-487:03 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-2011-1083
    The epoll implementation in the Linux kernel 2.6.37.2 and earlier does not properly traverse a tree of
    epoll file descriptors, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a
    crafted application that makes epoll_create and epoll_ctl system calls.
    Fixed bugs:
     [kernel] sysctl: restrict write access to dmesg_restrict
     [net] igb: reset PHY after recovering from PHY power down
     [fs] prevent lock contention in shrink_dcache_sb via private list
     [usb] cdc-acm: make lock use interrupt safe
     Revert: [scsi] qla2xxx: fix IO failure during chip reset
     Revert: [scsi] qla2xxx: avoid SCSI host_lock dep in queuecommand
     [net] tg3: Fix 4k tx and recovery code
     [net] bnx2x: make bnx2x_close static again
     [net] bnx2x: add fan failure event handling

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

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
