"It was discovered that Nagios incorrectly handled certain long
strings. A remote authenticated attacker could use this issue to cause
Nagios to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly obtain
sensitive information. (CVE-2013-7108, CVE-2013-7205)

It was discovered that Nagios incorrectly handled certain long
messages to cmd.cgi. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue
to cause Nagios to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2014-1878)

Dawid Golunski discovered that Nagios incorrectly handled symlinks
when accessing log files. A local attacker could possibly use this
issue to elevate privileges. In the default installation of Ubuntu,
this should be prevented by the Yama link restrictions.
(CVE-2016-9566).

description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues.");
