"The CentOS Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TuxCare
CENTOS6:CLSA-2026:1777683582 advisory.
- Vulnerability in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: Server: Replication). Supported
versions that are affected are 5.5.59 and prior, 5.6.39 and prior and 5.7.21 and prior. Difficult to
exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with logon to the infrastructure where MySQL Server
executes to compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than
the attacker and while the vulnerability is in MySQL Server, attacks may significantly impact additional
products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of MySQL Server. (CVE-2018-2755)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
