  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nft_tproxy: restrict to     prerouting hook TPROXY is only allowed from prerouting, but nft_tproxy doesn't check this. This fixes a     crash (null dereference) when using tproxy from e.g. output. (CVE-2022-50001)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ice: xsk: prohibit usage of non-     balanced queue id Fix the following scenario: 1. ethtool -L $IFACE rx 8 tx 96 2. xdpsock -q 10 -t -z Above     refers to a case where user would like to attach XSK socket in txonly mode at a queue id that does not     have a corresponding Rx queue. At this moment ice's XSK logic is tightly bound to act on a queue pair,     e.g. both Tx and Rx queues at a given queue id are disabled/enabled and both of them will get XSK pool     assigned, which is broken for the presented queue configuration. This results in the splat included at the     bottom, which is basically an OOB access to Rx ring array. To fix this, allow using the ids only in scope     of combined queues reported by ethtool. However, logic should be rewritten to allow such configurations     later on, which would end up as a complete rewrite of the control path, so let us go with this temporary     fix.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda-ipc: Do not     process IPC reply before firmware boot It is not yet clear, but it is possible to create a firmware so     broken that it will send a reply message before a FW_READY message (it is not yet clear if FW_READY will     arrive later). Since the reply_data is allocated only after the FW_READY message, this will lead to a NULL     pointer dereference if not filtered out. The issue was reported with IPC4 firmware but the same condition     is present for IPC3. (CVE-2022-50015)

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

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nft_tproxy: restrict to     prerouting hook TPROXY is only allowed from prerouting, but nft_tproxy doesn't check this. This fixes a     crash (null dereference) when using tproxy from e.g. output. (CVE-2022-50001)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ice: xsk: prohibit usage of non-     balanced queue id Fix the following scenario: 1. ethtool -L $IFACE rx 8 tx 96 2. xdpsock -q 10 -t -z Above     refers to a case where user would like to attach XSK socket in txonly mode at a queue id that does not     have a corresponding Rx queue. At this moment ice's XSK logic is tightly bound to act on a queue pair,     e.g. both Tx and Rx queues at a given queue id are disabled/enabled and both of them will get XSK pool     assigned, which is broken for the presented queue configuration. This results in the splat included at the     bottom, which is basically an OOB access to Rx ring array. To fix this, allow using the ids only in scope     of combined queues reported by ethtool. However, logic should be rewritten to allow such configurations     later on, which would end up as a complete rewrite of the control path, so let us go with this temporary     fix.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda-ipc: Do not     process IPC reply before firmware boot It is not yet clear, but it is possible to create a firmware so     broken that it will send a reply message before a FW_READY message (it is not yet clear if FW_READY will     arrive later). Since the reply_data is allocated only after the FW_READY message, this will lead to a NULL     pointer dereference if not filtered out. The issue was reported with IPC4 firmware but the same condition     is present for IPC3. (CVE-2022-50015)

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