"The remote MiracleLinux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
AXSA:2013-273:01 advisory.

    Boost provides free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries. The emphasis is on libraries which work
    well with the C++ Standard Library, in the hopes of establishing existing practice for extensions and
    providing reference implementations so that the Boost libraries are suitable for eventual standardization.
    (Some of the libraries have already been proposed for inclusion in the C++ Standards Committee's upcoming
    C++ Standard Library Technical Report.)
    security issues fixed with this release:
     CVE-2012-2677
    Integer overflow in the ordered_malloc function in boost/pool/pool.hpp in Boost Pool before 3.9 makes it
    easier for context-dependent attackers to perform memory-related attacks such as buffer overflows via a
    large memory chunk size value, which causes less memory to be allocated than expected.

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.");
