In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: pcm: Check for null pointer of pointer substream before dereferencing it Pointer substream is being dereferenced on the assignment of pointer card before substream is being null checked with the macro PCM_RUNTIME_CHECK. Although PCM_RUNTIME_CHECK calls BUG_ON, it still is useful to perform the the pointer check before card is assigned.

The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the UTSA-2025-987130 advisory.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

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

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

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: pcm: Check for null pointer of     pointer substream before dereferencing it Pointer substream is being dereferenced on the assignment of     pointer card before substream is being null checked with the macro PCM_RUNTIME_CHECK. Although     PCM_RUNTIME_CHECK calls BUG_ON, it still is useful to perform the the pointer check before card is     assigned. (CVE-2022-49498)

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

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.10.126-117.518. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.10-2022-015 advisory.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    drm/plane: Move range check for format_count earlier (CVE-2021-47659)

    Due to the small table perturb size, a memory leak flaw was found in the Linux kernel's TCP source port     generation algorithm in the net/ipv4/tcp.c function. This flaw allows an attacker to leak information and     may cause a denial of service. (CVE-2022-1012)

    A use-after-free flaw was found in fs/ext4/namei.c:dx_insert_block() in the Linux kernel's filesystem sub-     component. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user privilege to cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2022-1184)

    With shadow paging enabled, the INVPCID instruction results in a call to kvm_mmu_invpcid_gva. If INVPCID     is executed with CR0.PG=0, the invlpg callback is not set and the result is a NULL pointer dereference.
    (CVE-2022-1789)

    A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel's KVM module, which can lead to a denial of     service in the x86_emulate_insn in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c. This flaw occurs while executing an illegal     instruction in guest in the Intel CPU. (CVE-2022-1852)

    A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's Netfilter subsystem in     net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c. This flaw allows a local attacker with user access to cause a privilege     escalation issue. (CVE-2022-1966)

    A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's nft_set_desc_concat_parse() function .This flaw allows an     attacker to trigger a buffer overflow via nft_set_desc_concat_parse() , causing a denial of service and     possibly to run code. (CVE-2022-2078)

    A flaw was found in hw. Incomplete cleanup of multi-core shared buffers for some Intel(r) Processors may     allow an authenticated user to enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2022-21123)

    A flaw was found in hw. Incomplete cleanup of microarchitectural fill buffers on some Intel(r) Processors     may allow an authenticated user to enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2022-21125)

    A flaw was found in hw. Incomplete cleanup in specific special register write operations for some     Intel Processors may allow an authenticated user to enable information disclosure via local access.
    (CVE-2022-21166)

    KGDB and KDB allow read and write access to kernel memory, and thus should be restricted during lockdown.
    An attacker with access to a serial port could trigger the debugger so it is important that the debugger     respect the lockdown mode when/if it is triggered. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 6.5 (Confidentiality, Integrity and     Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H). (CVE-2022-21499)

    net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c in the Linux kernel through 5.18.1 allows a local user (able to create     user/net namespaces) to escalate privileges to root because an incorrect NFT_STATEFUL_EXPR check leads to     a use-after-free. (CVE-2022-32250)

    The Linux kernel before 5.17.9 allows TCP servers to identify clients by observing what source ports are     used. (CVE-2022-32296)

    An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.18.3 on powerpc 32-bit platforms. There is a buffer     overflow in ptrace PEEKUSER and POKEUSER (aka PEEKUSR and POKEUSR) when accessing floating point     registers. (CVE-2022-32981)
