"The remote MiracleLinux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2017-1912:03 advisory.

    SSH (Secure SHell) is a program for logging into and executing
    commands on a remote machine. SSH is intended to replace rlogin and
    rsh, and to provide secure encrypted communications between two
    untrusted hosts over an insecure network. X11 connections and
    arbitrary TCP/IP ports can also be forwarded over the secure channel.
    OpenSSH is OpenBSD's version of the last free version of SSH, bringing
    it up to date in terms of security and features.
    This package includes the core files necessary for both the OpenSSH
    client and server. To make this package useful, you should also
    install openssh-clients, openssh-server, or both.
    CVE-2016-10009
    Untrusted search path vulnerability in ssh-agent.c in ssh-agent in OpenSSH
     before 7.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary local PKCS#11
    modules by leveraging control over a forwarded agent-socket.
    CVE-2016-10011
    authfile.c in sshd in OpenSSH before 7.2 does not properly consider the
    effects of realloc on buffer contents, which might allow local users to obtain
     sensitive private-key information by leveraging access to a
    privilege-separated child process.
    CVE-2016-10012
    The shared memory manager (associated with pre-authentication compression)
     in sshd in OpenSSH before 7.2 does not ensure that a bounds check is
    enforced by all compilers, which might allows local users to gain privileges by
     leveraging access to a sandboxed privilege-separation process, related to the
     m_zback and m_zlib data structures.

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
