"The remote MiracleLinux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
AXSA:2012-548:04 advisory.

    PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it easy for developers to write
    dynamically generated webpages. PHP also offers built-in database integration for several commercial and
    non-commercial database management systems, so writing a database-enabled webpage with PHP is fairly
    simple. The most common use of PHP coding is probably as a replacement for CGI scripts.  The php package
    contains the module which adds support for the PHP language to Apache HTTP Server.
    Security issues fixed in this release:
    CVE-2012-1823
    sapi/cgi/cgi_main.c in PHP before 5.3.12 and 5.4.x before 5.4.2, when configured as a CGI script (aka php-
    cgi), does not properly handle query strings that lack an = (equals sign) character, which allows remote
    attackers to execute arbitrary code by placing command-line options in the query string, related to lack
    of skipping a certain php_getopt for the 'd' case.

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
number.");
