The remote Oracle Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2018-4110 advisory.

  - The usb_destroy_configuration function in drivers/usb/core/config.c in the USB core subsystem in the Linux     kernel through 4.14.5 does not consider the maximum number of configurations and interfaces before     attempting to release resources, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds     write access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. (CVE-2017-17558)

  - net/netfilter/nfnetlink_cthelper.c in the Linux kernel through 4.14.4 does not require the CAP_NET_ADMIN     capability for new, get, and del operations, which allows local users to bypass intended access     restrictions because the nfnl_cthelper_list data structure is shared across all net namespaces.
    (CVE-2017-17448)

  - The get_endpoints function in drivers/usb/misc/usbtest.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.11 allows local     users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. (CVE-2017-16532)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux 4.x kernel's implementation of 32-bit syscall interface for bridging. This     allowed a privileged user to arbitrarily write to a limited range of kernel memory. (CVE-2018-1068)

  - The ext4_valid_block_bitmap function in fs/ext4/balloc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.15.15 allows     attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) via a crafted ext4 image     because balloc.c and ialloc.c do not validate bitmap block numbers. (CVE-2018-1093)

  - The parse_hid_report_descriptor function in drivers/input/tablet/gtco.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.11     allows local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. (CVE-2017-16643)

  - In the Linux kernel through 3.2, the rds_message_alloc_sgs() function does not validate a value that is     used during DMA page allocation, leading to a heap-based out-of-bounds write (related to the     rds_rdma_extra_size function in net/rds/rdma.c). (CVE-2018-5332)

  - The imon_probe function in drivers/media/rc/imon.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.11 allows local users     to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified     other impact via a crafted USB device. (CVE-2017-16537)

  - The KEYS subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.13.7 mishandles use of add_key for a key that already     exists but is uninstantiated, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted system call.
    (CVE-2017-15299)

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