"The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
AXSA:2014-036:01 advisory.

    Ruby is the interpreted scripting language for quick and easy object-oriented programming. It has many
    features to process text files and to do system management tasks (as in Perl). It is simple, straight-
    forward, and extensible.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
     CVE-2013-4164
    Heap-based buffer overflow in Ruby 1.8, 1.9 before 1.9.3-p484, 2.0 before 2.0.0-p353, 2.1 before 2.1.0
    preview2, and trunk before revision 43780 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service
    (segmentation fault) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a string that is converted to a floating
    point value, as demonstrated using (1) the to_f method or (2) JSON.parse.

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.");
