    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2017-1000366
    glibc contains a vulnerability that allows specially crafted
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH values to manipulate the heap/stack, causing them to
    alias, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution. Please note
    that additional hardening changes have been made to glibc to prevent
    manipulation of stack and heap memory but these issues are not
    directly exploitable, as such they have not been given a CVE. This
    affects glibc 2.25 and earlier.

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.");
