"The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
AXSA:2012-959:02 advisory.
The FreeRADIUS Server Project is a high performance and highly configurable GPL'd free RADIUS server. The
server is similar in some respects to Livingston's 2.0 server. While FreeRADIUS started as a variant of
the Cistron RADIUS server, they don't share a lot in common any more. It now has many more features than
Cistron or Livingston, and is much more configurable.
FreeRADIUS is an Internet authentication daemon, which implements the RADIUS protocol, as defined in RFC
2865 (and others). It allows Network Access Servers (NAS boxes) to perform authentication for dial-up
users. There are also RADIUS clients available for Web servers, firewalls, Unix logins, and more. Using
RADIUS allows authentication and authorization for a network to be centralized, and minimizes the amount
of re-configuration which has to be done when adding or deleting new users.
Security issues fixed with this release:
CVE-2012-3547
Stack-based buffer overflow in the cbtls_verify function in FreeRADIUS 2.1.10 through 2.1.12, when using
TLS-based EAP methods, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (server crash) and possibly
execute arbitrary code via a long not after timestamp in a client certificate.
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.");
