"The remote MiracleLinux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2016-230:03 advisory.

    The OpenSSL toolkit provides support for secure communications between
    machines. OpenSSL includes a certificate management tool and shared
    libraries which provide various cryptographic algorithms and
    protocols.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2016-0799
    The fmtstr function in crypto/bio/b_print.c in OpenSSL 1.0.1 before
    1.0.1s and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2g improperly calculates string lengths,
    which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (overflow
    and out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via
    a long string, as demonstrated by a large amount of ASN.1 data, a
    different vulnerability than CVE-2016-2842.
    CVE-2016-2105
    Integer overflow in the EVP_EncodeUpdate function in
    crypto/evp/encode.c in OpenSSL before 1.0.1t and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2h
    allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap memory
    corruption) via a large amount of binary data.
    CVE-2016-2106
    Integer overflow in the EVP_EncryptUpdate function in
    crypto/evp/evp_enc.c in OpenSSL before 1.0.1t and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2h
    allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap memory
    corruption) via a large amount of data.
    CVE-2016-2107
    The AES-NI implementation in OpenSSL before 1.0.1t and 1.0.2 before
    1.0.2h does not consider memory allocation during a certain padding
    check, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive cleartext
    information via a padding-oracle attack against an AES CBC session,
    NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for
    CVE-2013-0169.
    CVE-2016-2108
    The ASN.1 implementation in OpenSSL before 1.0.1o and 1.0.2 before
    1.0.2c allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a
    denial of service (buffer underflow and memory corruption) via an ANY
    field in crafted serialized data, aka the negative zero issue.
    CVE-2016-2109
    The asn1_d2i_read_bio function in crypto/asn1/a_d2i_fp.c in the ASN.1
    BIO implementation in OpenSSL before 1.0.1t and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2h
    allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory
    consumption) via a short invalid encoding.
    CVE-2016-2842
    The doapr_outch function in crypto/bio/b_print.c in OpenSSL 1.0.1
    before 1.0.1s and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2g does not verify that a certain
    memory allocation succeeds, which allows remote attackers to cause a
    denial of service (out-of-bounds write or memory consumption) or
    possibly have unspecified other impact via a long string, as
    demonstrated by a large amount of ASN.1 data, a different
    vulnerability than CVE-2016-0799.
