"The remote MiracleLinux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2016-096:01 advisory.

    The glibc package contains standard libraries which are used by
    multiple programs on the system. In order to save disk space and
    memory, as well as to make upgrading easier, common system code is
    kept in one place and shared between programs. This particular package
    contains the most important sets of shared libraries: the standard C
    library and the standard math library. Without these two libraries, a
    Linux system will not function.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2015-5229
    ** RESERVED **
    This candidate has been reserved by an organization or individual that
    will use it when announcing a new security problem.  When the
    candidate has been publicized, the details for this candidate will be
    provided.
    CVE-2015-7547
    ** RESERVED **
    This candidate has been reserved by an organization or individual that
    will use it when announcing a new security problem.  When the
    candidate has been publicized, the details for this candidate will be
    provided.
    Fixed bugs:
    * The existing implementation of the free function causes all memory pools beyond the first to return
    freed memory directly to the operating system as quickly as possible. This can result in performance
    degradation when the rate of free calls is very high. The first memory pool (the main pool) does provide a
    method to rate limit the returns via M_TRIM_THRESHOLD, but this method is not available to subsequent
    memory pools.
    * On the little-endian variant of 64-bit IBM Power Systems (ppc64le), a bug in the dynamic loader could
    cause applications compiled with profiling enabled to fail to start with the error monstartup: out of
    memory. The bug has been corrected and applications compiled for profiling now start correctly.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
