For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Bug Fix(es):

* Previously, a syntax error in the Galera Arbitrator SysV init script prevented the garbd daemon from being started when the SysV init script was used. With this update, the definition of the main daemon binary in the SysV init script has been fixed, and the described problem no longer occurs. (BZ#1466473)

* Prior to this update, the scl macros were not set for the [email protected] file, which consequently made the service file unusable. This bug has been fixed, and [email protected] now works as expected. (BZ#1485995)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
