"The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2012-915:08 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-2011-1078
    The sco_sock_getsockopt_old function in net/bluetooth/sco.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 does not
    initialize a certain structure, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from
    kernel stack memory via the SCO_CONNINFO option.
     CVE-2012-2383
    Integer overflow in the i915_gem_execbuffer2 function in drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_execbuffer.c in the
    Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.3.5 on 32-bit platforms allows local
    users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a
    crafted ioctl call.
    Fixed bugs:
     Fixed some problems related to the leap second hrtimer.
     [fs] proc: stats: Use arch_idle_time for idle and iowait times if available
     [usb] core: change the memory limits in usbfs URB submission
     [usb] core: unify some error pathways in usbfs
     [netdrv] ixgbe: BIT_APP_UPCHG not set by ixgbe_copy_dcb_cfg()
     [netdrv] ixgbe: driver fix for link flap
     [netdrv] be2net: enable GRO by default
     [net] bridge: Fix enforcement of multicast hash_max limit
     [net] 8021q/vlan: filter device events on bonds
     [wireless] ipw2200: remove references to CFG80211_WEXT config option
     [virt] kvm/vmx: Fix KVM_SET_SREGS with big real mode segments
     [fs] writeback: merge for_kupdate and !for_kupdate cases
     [fs] writeback: fix queue_io() ordering
     [fs] writeback: don't redirty tail an inode with dirty pages
     [fs] ext4: properly dirty split extent nodes
