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

An update of the linux package 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.

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw in diFree in fs/jfs/inode.c in Journaled File System (JFS)in the Linux     kernel. This could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak kernel internal information.
    (CVE-2022-3202)

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

The version of kernel installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2022-3202 advisory.

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw in diFree in fs/jfs/inode.c in Journaled File System (JFS)in the Linux     kernel. This could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak kernel internal information.
    (CVE-2022-3202)

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

According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Insufficient input validation in i40e driver for Intel(R) Ethernet 700 Series Controllers versions before     2.8.43 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable a denial of service via local access.
    (CVE-2019-0149)

  - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel, where accessing a deallocated instance in printer_ioctl()     printer_ioctl() tries to access of a printer_dev instance. However, use-after-free arises because it had     been freed by gprinter_free(). (CVE-2020-27784)

  - LFENCE/JMP (mitigation V2-2) may not sufficiently mitigate CVE-2017-5715 on some AMD CPUs.
    (CVE-2021-26401)

  - A vulnerability was found in linux kernel, where an information leak occurs via ext4_extent_header to     userspace. (CVE-2022-0850)

  - An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the Linux kernel's TeleTYpe subsystem. The issue occurs in how a     user triggers a race condition using ioctls TIOCSPTLCK and TIOCGPTPEER and TIOCSTI and TCXONC with leakage     of memory in the flush_to_ldisc function. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system or read     unauthorized random data from memory. (CVE-2022-1462)

  - In rndis_set_response of rndis.c, there is a possible out of bounds write due to an integer overflow. This     could lead to local escalation of privilege if a malicious USB device is attached with no additional     execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions:
    Android kernelAndroid ID: A-239842288References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2022-20423)

  - An issue was found in the Linux kernel in nf_conntrack_irc where the message handling can be confused and     incorrectly matches the message. A firewall may be able to be bypassed when users are using unencrypted     IRC with nf_conntrack_irc configured. (CVE-2022-2663)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel implementation of proxied virtualized TPM devices. On a system where     virtualized TPM devices are configured (this is not the default) a local attacker can create a use-after-     free and create a situation where it may be possible to escalate privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-2977)

  - A heap-based buffer overflow was found in the Linux kernel's LightNVM subsystem. The issue results from     the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length     heap-based buffer. This vulnerability allows a local attacker to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary     code in the context of the kernel. The attacker must first obtain the ability to execute high-privileged     code on the target system to exploit this vulnerability. (CVE-2022-2991)

  - A race condition was found in the Linux kernel's IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem)     when multiple calls to xfrm_probe_algs occurred simultaneously. This flaw could allow a local attacker to     potentially trigger an out-of-bounds write or leak kernel heap memory by performing an out-of-bounds read     and copying it into a socket. (CVE-2022-3028)

  - Found Linux Kernel flaw in the i740 driver. The Userspace program could pass any values to the driver     through ioctl() interface. The driver doesn't check the value of 'pixclock', so it may cause a divide by     zero error. (CVE-2022-3061)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw in diFree in fs/jfs/inode.c in Journaled File System (JFS)in the Linux     kernel. This could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak kernel internal information.
    (CVE-2022-3202)

  - A flaw use after free in the Linux kernel video4linux driver was found in the way user triggers     em28xx_usb_probe() for the Empia 28xx based TV cards. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system     or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-3239)

  - A race condition flaw was found in the Linux kernel sound subsystem due to improper locking. It could lead     to a NULL pointer dereference while handling the SNDCTL_DSP_SYNC ioctl. A privileged local user (root or     member of the audio group) could use this flaw to crash the system, resulting in a denial of service     condition (CVE-2022-3303)

  - An issue was discovered in include/asm-generic/tlb.h in the Linux kernel before 5.19. Because of a race     condition (unmap_mapping_range versus munmap), a device driver can free a page while it still has stale     TLB entries. This only occurs in situations with VM_PFNMAP VMAs. (CVE-2022-39188)

  - An issue was discovered the x86 KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel before 5.18.17. Unprivileged guest users     can compromise the guest kernel because TLB flush operations are mishandled in certain KVM_VCPU_PREEMPTED     situations. (CVE-2022-39189)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.19. In pxa3xx_gcu_write in     drivers/video/fbdev/pxa3xx-gcu.c, the count parameter has a type conflict of size_t versus int, causing an     integer overflow and bypassing the size check. After that, because it is used as the third argument to     copy_from_user(), a heap overflow may occur. NOTE: the original discoverer disputes that the overflow can     actually happen. (CVE-2022-39842)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.19.8. drivers/firmware/efi/capsule-loader.c has a     race condition with a resultant use-after-free. (CVE-2022-40307)

  - roccat_report_event in drivers/hid/hid-roccat.c in the Linux kernel through 5.19.12 has a race condition     and resultant use-after-free in certain situations where a report is received while copying a     report->value is in progress. (CVE-2022-41850)

  - mm/rmap.c in the Linux kernel before 5.19.7 has a use-after-free related to leaf anon_vma double reuse.
    (CVE-2022-42703)

The issue occurs in how a     user triggers a race condition using ioctls TIOCSPTLCK and TIOCGPTPEER and TIOCSTI and TCXONC with leakage     of memory in the flush_to_ldisc function. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system or read     unauthorized random data from memory. (CVE-2022-1462)

  - In rndis_set_response of rndis.c, there is a possible out of bounds write due to an integer overflow. This     could lead to local escalation of privilege if a malicious USB device is attached with no additional     execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions:
    Android kernelAndroid ID: A-239842288References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2022-20423)

  - An issue was found in the Linux kernel in nf_conntrack_irc where the message handling can be confused and     incorrectly matches the message. A firewall may be able to be bypassed when users are using unencrypted     IRC with nf_conntrack_irc configured. (CVE-2022-2663)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel implementation of proxied virtualized TPM devices. On a system where     virtualized TPM devices are configured (this is not the default) a local attacker can create a use-after-     free and create a situation where it may be possible to escalate privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-2977)

  - A heap-based buffer overflow was found in the Linux kernel's LightNVM subsystem. The issue results from     the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length     heap-based buffer. This vulnerability allows a local attacker to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary     code in the context of the kernel. The attacker must first obtain the ability to execute high-privileged     code on the target system to exploit this vulnerability. (CVE-2022-2991)

  - A race condition was found in the Linux kernel's IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem)     when multiple calls to xfrm_probe_algs occurred simultaneously. This flaw could allow a local attacker to     potentially trigger an out-of-bounds write or leak kernel heap memory by performing an out-of-bounds read     and copying it into a socket. (CVE-2022-3028)

  - Found Linux Kernel flaw in the i740 driver. The Userspace program could pass any values to the driver     through ioctl() interface. The driver doesn't check the value of 'pixclock', so it may cause a divide by     zero error. (CVE-2022-3061)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw in diFree in fs/jfs/inode.c in Journaled File System (JFS)in the Linux     kernel. This could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak kernel internal information.
    (CVE-2022-3202)

  - A flaw use after free in the Linux kernel video4linux driver was found in the way user triggers     em28xx_usb_probe() for the Empia 28xx based TV cards. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system     or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-3239)

  - A race condition flaw was found in the Linux kernel sound subsystem due to improper locking. It could lead     to a NULL pointer dereference while handling the SNDCTL_DSP_SYNC ioctl. A privileged local user (root or     member of the audio group) could use this flaw to crash the system, resulting in a denial of service     condition (CVE-2022-3303)

  - An issue was discovered in include/asm-generic/tlb.h in the Linux kernel before 5.19. Because of a race     condition (unmap_mapping_range versus munmap), a device driver can free a page while it still has stale     TLB entries. This only occurs in situations with VM_PFNMAP VMAs. (CVE-2022-39188)

  - An issue was discovered the x86 KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel before 5.18.17. Unprivileged guest users     can compromise the guest kernel because TLB flush operations are mishandled in certain KVM_VCPU_PREEMPTED     situations. (CVE-2022-39189)

  - ** DISPUTED ** An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.19. In pxa3xx_gcu_write in     drivers/video/fbdev/pxa3xx-gcu.c, the count parameter has a type conflict of size_t versus int, causing an     integer overflow and bypassing the size check. After that, because it is used as the third argument to     copy_from_user(), a heap overflow may occur. NOTE: the original discoverer disputes that the overflow can     actually happen. (CVE-2022-39842)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.19.8. drivers/firmware/efi/capsule-loader.c has a     race condition with a resultant use-after-free. (CVE-2022-40307)

  - roccat_report_event in drivers/hid/hid-roccat.c in the Linux kernel through 5.19.12 has a race condition     and resultant use-after-free in certain situations where a report is received while copying a     report->value is in progress. (CVE-2022-41850)

  - mm/rmap.c in the Linux kernel before 5.19.7 has a use-after-free related to leaf anon_vma double reuse.
