The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 / 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2016:1132 advisory.

    MariaDB is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server. For all practical purposes, MariaDB is     binary-compatible with MySQL. MariaDB uses PCRE, a Perl-compatible regular expression library, to     implement regular expression support in SQL queries.

    Security Fix(es):

    * It was found that the MariaDB client library did not properly check host names against server identities     noted in the X.509 certificates when establishing secure connections using TLS/SSL. A man-in-the-middle     attacker could possibly use this flaw to impersonate a server to a client. (CVE-2016-2047)

    * This update fixes several vulnerabilities in the MariaDB database server. Information about these flaws     can be found on the Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory page, listed in the References section.

    * Multiple flaws were found in the way PCRE handled malformed regular expressions. An attacker able to     make MariaDB execute an SQL query with a specially crafted regular expression could use these flaws to     cause it to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-3210, CVE-2015-3217, CVE-2015-5073,     CVE-2015-8381, CVE-2015-8383, CVE-2015-8384, CVE-2015-8385, CVE-2015-8386, CVE-2015-8388, CVE-2015-8391,     CVE-2015-8392, CVE-2015-8395, CVE-2016-1283, CVE-2016-3191)
