Two memory leaks in the v3d_submit_cl_ioctl() function in drivers/gpu/drm/v3d/v3d_gem.c in the Linux kernel before 5.3.11 allow attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering kcalloc() or v3d_job_init() failures, aka CID-29cd13cfd762.

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2026-003819 advisory.

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

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4225-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that a heap-based buffer overflow existed in the Marvell WiFi-Ex Driver for the Linux     kernel. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or     possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-14895, CVE-2019-14901)

    It was discovered that a heap-based buffer overflow existed in the Marvell Libertas WLAN Driver for the     Linux kernel. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash)     or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-14896, CVE-2019-14897)

    It was discovered that the Fujitsu ES network device driver for the Linux kernel did not properly check     for errors in some situations, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. A local attacker could use this to     cause a denial of service. (CVE-2019-16231)

    Anthony Steinhauser discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly perform Spectre_RSB mitigations to     all processors for PowerPC architecture systems in some situations. A local attacker could use this to     expose sensitive information. (CVE-2019-18660)

    It was discovered that the Broadcom V3D DRI driver in the Linux kernel did not properly deallocate memory     in certain error conditions. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (kernel     memory exhaustion). (CVE-2019-19044)

    It was discovered that the Mellanox Technologies Innova driver in the Linux kernel did not properly     deallocate memory in certain failure conditions. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of     service (kernel memory exhaustion). (CVE-2019-19045)

    It was discovered that the Mellanox Technologies ConnectX driver in the Linux kernel did not properly     deallocate memory in certain failure conditions. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of     service (kernel memory exhaustion). (CVE-2019-19047)

    It was discovered that the Intel WiMAX 2400 driver in the Linux kernel did not properly deallocate memory     in certain situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (kernel memory     exhaustion). (CVE-2019-19051)

    It was discovered that Geschwister Schneider USB CAN interface driver in the Linux kernel did not properly     deallocate memory in certain failure conditions. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a     denial of service (kernel memory exhaustion). (CVE-2019-19052)

    It was discovered that the netlink-based 802.11 configuration interface in the Linux kernel did not     deallocate memory in certain error conditions. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial     of service (kernel memory exhaustion). (CVE-2019-19055)

    It was discovered that the event tracing subsystem of the Linux kernel did not properly deallocate memory     in certain error conditions. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (kernel memory     exhaustion). (CVE-2019-19072)

    It was discovered that the driver for memoryless force-feedback input devices in the Linux kernel     contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could possibly use this to cause     a denial of service (system crash) or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-19524)

    It was discovered that the Microchip CAN BUS Analyzer driver in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-     free vulnerability on device disconnect. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial     of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-19529)

    It was discovered that the PEAK-System Technik USB driver in the Linux kernel did not properly sanitize     memory before sending it to the device. A physically proximate attacker could use this to expose sensitive     information (kernel memory). (CVE-2019-19534)

    Tristan Madani discovered that the ALSA timer implementation in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-     free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or     possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-19807)

    It was discovered that the DesignWare USB3 controller driver in the Linux kernel did not properly     deallocate memory in some error conditions. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of     service (memory exhaustion). (CVE-2019-18813)
