"The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
AXSA:2015-271:01 advisory.

    SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a protocol used for
    network management. The NET-SNMP project includes various SNMP tools:
    an extensible agent, an SNMP library, tools for requesting or setting
    information from SNMP agents, tools for generating and handling SNMP
    traps and a version of the netstat command which uses SNMP. This
    package contains the snmpd and snmptrapd daemons, documentation, etc.
    You will probably also want to install the net-snmp-utils package,
    which contains NET-SNMP utilities.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2014-3565
    Fixed bugs:
    * The HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrSystemProcesses object was not implemented because
    parts of the HOST-RESOURCES-MIB module were rewritten in an earlier version of
    net-snmp. Consequently, HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrSystemProcesses did not provide
    information on the number of currently loaded or running processes. With this
    update, HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrSystemProcesses has been implemented, and the
    net-snmp daemon reports as expected.
    * The Net-SNMP agent daemon, snmpd, reloaded the system ARP table every 60
    seconds. As a consequence, snmpd could cause a short CPU usage spike on busy
    systems with a large APR table. With this update, the problem was fixed.
    * Previously, snmpd used an invalid pointer to the current time when
    periodically checking certain conditions specified by the monitor option in
    the /etc/snmpd/snmpd.conf file. Consequently, snmpd terminated unexpectedly on
    start with a segmentation fault if a certain entry with the monitor option was
    used. Now, snmpd has been update to pass this error.
    * Previously, snmpd expected 8-bit network interface indices when processing
    HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrDeviceTable. If an interface index of a local network
    interface was larger than 30,000 items, snmpd could terminate unexpectedly due
    to accessing invalid memory. The bug was fixed in this update.
    * The snmpdtrapd service incorrectly checked for errors when forwarding a trap
    with a RequestID value of 0, and logged Forward failed even though the trap
    was successfully forwarded. This update fixes snmptrapd checks and the
    aforementioned message is now logged only when appropriate.
    * Previously, snmpd ignored the value of the storageUseNFS option in the
    /etc/snmpd/snmpd.conf file. As a consequence, NFS drivers were shown as Network
    Disks, even though storageUseNFS was set to 2 to report them as Fixed
    Disks in HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageTable. With this update, fixed it.
    * Previously, the Net-SNMP python binding used an incorrect size (8 bytes
    instead of 4) for variables of IPADDRESS type. Consequently, applications that
    were using Net-SNMP Python bindings could send malformed SNMP messages. With
    this update, this bug has been fixed.
    * Previously, the snmpd service did not cut values in
    HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageTable to signed 32-bit integers, as required by
    SNMP standards, and provided the values as unsigned integers. As a consequence,
    the HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageTable implementation did not conform to RFC
    2790. The values are now cut to 32-bit signed integers, and snmpd is therefore
    standard compliant.
