In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mcb: mcb-parse: fix error handing in chameleon_parse_gdd() If mcb_device_register() returns error in chameleon_parse_gdd(), the refcount of bus and device name are leaked. Fix this by calling put_device() to give up the reference, so they can be released in mcb_release_dev() and kobject_cleanup().

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 4.14.304-226.531. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2023-1932 advisory.

    Guests can trigger NIC interface reset/abort/crash via netback It is possible for a guest to trigger a NIC     interface reset/abort/crash in a Linux based network backend by sending certain kinds of packets. It     appears to be an (unwritten?) assumption in the rest of the Linux network stack that packet protocol     headers are all contained within the linear section of the SKB and some NICs behave badly if this is not     the case. This has been reported to occur with Cisco (enic) and Broadcom NetXtrem II BCM5780 (bnx2x)     though it may be an issue with other NICs/drivers as well. In case the frontend is sending requests with     split headers, netback will forward those violating above mentioned assumption to the networking core,     resulting in said misbehavior. (CVE-2022-3643)

    Guests can trigger deadlock in Linux netback driver T[his CNA information record relates to multiple CVEs;
    the text explains which aspects/vulnerabilities correspond to which CVE.] The patch for XSA-392 introduced     another issue which might result in a deadlock when trying to free the SKB of a packet dropped due to the     XSA-392 handling (CVE-2022-42328). Additionally when dropping packages for other reasons the same deadlock     could occur in case of netpoll being active for the interface the xen-netback driver is connected to     (CVE-2022-42329).

    An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 6.0.10. l2cap_config_req in net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c     has an integer wraparound via L2CAP_CONF_REQ packets. (CVE-2022-45934)

    regulator: core: fix unbalanced of node refcount in regulator_dev_lookup() (CVE-2022-50887)

    The Linux kernel does not correctly mitigate SMT attacks, as discovered through a strange pattern in the     kernel API using STIBP as a mitigation, leaving the process exposed for a short period of time after a     syscall. The kernel also does not issue an IBPB immediately during the syscall. (CVE-2023-0045)

    A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in rawv6_push_pending_frames in net/ipv6/raw.c in the network     subcomponent in the Linux kernel. This flaw causes the system to crash. (CVE-2023-0394)

    Detected a few exploitable gadgets that could leak secret memory through a side-channel such as MDS as     well as insufficient hardening of the usercopy functions against spectre-v1. (CVE-2023-0459)

    There is a use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux Kernel which can be exploited to achieve local     privilege escalation. To reach the vulnerability kernel configuration flag CONFIG_TLS or     CONFIG_XFRM_ESPINTCP has to be configured, but the operation does not require any privilege.

    There is a use-after-free bug of icsk_ulp_data of a struct inet_connection_sock.

    When CONFIG_TLS is enabled, user can install a tls context (struct tls_context) on a connected tcp socket.
    The context is not cleared if this socket is disconnected and reused as a listener. If a new socket is     created from the listener, the context is inherited and vulnerable.

    The setsockopt TCP_ULP operation does not require any privilege.

    atm_tc_enqueue in net/sched/sch_atm.c in the Linux kernel through 6.1.4 allows attackers to cause a denial     of service because of type confusion (non-negative numbers can sometimes indicate a TC_ACT_SHOT condition     rather than valid classification results). (CVE-2023-23455)
