"The remote MiracleLinux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2016-1118:03 advisory.

    PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it
    easy for developers to write dynamically generated web pages. PHP also
    offers built-in database integration for several commercial and
    non-commercial database management systems, so writing a
    database-enabled webpage with PHP is fairly simple. The most common
    use of PHP coding is probably as a replacement for CGI scripts.
    The php package contains the module (often referred to as mod_php)
    which adds support for the PHP language to Apache HTTP Server.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2016-5399
    ** 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-2016-5766
    Integer overflow in the _gd2GetHeader function in gd_gd2.c in the GD
    Graphics Library (aka libgd) before 2.2.3, as used in PHP before
    5.5.37, 5.6.x before 5.6.23, and 7.x before 7.0.8, allows remote
    attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and
    application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via
    crafted chunk dimensions in an image.
    CVE-2016-5767
    Integer overflow in the gdImageCreate function in gd.c in the GD
    Graphics Library (aka libgd) before 2.0.34RC1, as used in PHP before
    5.5.37, 5.6.x before 5.6.23, and 7.x before 7.0.8, allows remote
    attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and
    application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a
    crafted image dimensions.
    CVE-2016-5768
    Double free vulnerability in the _php_mb_regex_ereg_replace_exec
    function in php_mbregex.c in the mbstring extension in PHP before
    5.5.37, 5.6.x before 5.6.23, and 7.x before 7.0.8 allows remote
    attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service
    (application crash) by leveraging a callback exception.
