"The remote MiracleLinux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2013-580:06 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-2012-6544
    The Bluetooth protocol stack in the Linux kernel before 3.6 does not properly initialize certain
    structures, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a
    crafted application that targets the (1) L2CAP or (2) HCI implementation.
     CVE-2012-6545
    The Bluetooth RFCOMM implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.6 does not properly initialize certain
    structures, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted
    application.
     CVE-2013-0914
    The flush_signal_handlers function in kernel/signal.c in the Linux kernel before 3.8.4 preserves the value
    of the sa_restorer field across an exec operation, which makes it easier for local users to bypass the
    ASLR protection mechanism via a crafted application containing a sigaction system call.
     CVE-2013-1929
    Heap-based buffer overflow in the tg3_read_vpd function in drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/tg3.c in the
    Linux kernel before 3.8.6 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (system
    crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted firmware that specifies a long string in the Vital
    Product Data (VPD) data structure.
     CVE-2013-3222
    The vcc_recvmsg function in net/atm/common.c in the Linux kernel before 3.9-rc7 does not initialize a
    certain length variable, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory
    via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call.
     CVE-2013-3224
    The bt_sock_recvmsg function in net/bluetooth/af_bluetooth.c in the Linux kernel before 3.9-rc7 does not
    properly initialize a certain length variable, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information
    from kernel stack memory via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call.
     CVE-2013-3231
    The llc_ui_recvmsg function in net/llc/af_llc.c in the Linux kernel before 3.9-rc7 does not initialize a
    certain length variable, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory
    via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call.
     CVE-2013-3235
    net/tipc/socket.c in the Linux kernel before 3.9-rc7 does not initialize a certain data structure and a
    certain length variable, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory
    via a crafted recvmsg or recvfrom system call.
