An update of the crash package has been released.

An update of 'binutils' packages of Photon OS has been released.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - The C++ symbol demangler routine in cplus-dem.c in libiberty, as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.29, allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (excessive memory allocation and application crash) via a     crafted file, as demonstrated by a call from the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd).
    (CVE-2017-13716)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
