In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: core: Fix a procfs host directory removal regression scsi_proc_hostdir_rm() decreases a reference counter and hence must only be called once per host that is removed. This change does not require a scsi_add_host_with_dma() change since scsi_add_host_with_dma() will return 0 (success) if scsi_proc_host_add() is called.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES12 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2025:02846-1 advisory.

    The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP5 kernel was updated to receive various security bugfixes.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS kernel security advisory.

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: scsi: core: Fix a procfs host     directory removal regression scsi_proc_hostdir_rm() decreases a reference counter and hence must only be     called once per host that is removed. This change does not require a scsi_add_host_with_dma() change since     scsi_add_host_with_dma() will return 0 (success) if scsi_proc_host_add() is called. (CVE-2023-53118)

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

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2025:02262-1 advisory.
