In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qedi: Fix use after free bug in qedi_remove() In qedi_probe() we call __qedi_probe() which initializes &qedi->recovery_work with qedi_recovery_handler() and &qedi->board_disable_work with qedi_board_disable_work(). When qedi_schedule_recovery_handler() is called, schedule_delayed_work() will finally start the work.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE 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.

  - scsi: qedi: Fix use after free bug in qedi_remove() In qedi_probe() we call __qedi_probe() which     initializes &qedi->recovery_work with qedi_recovery_handler() and &qedi->board_disable_work with     qedi_board_disable_work(). When qedi_schedule_recovery_handler() is called, schedule_delayed_work() will     finally start the work. In qedi_remove(), which is called to remove the driver, the following sequence may     be observed: Fix this by finishing the work before cleanup in qedi_remove(). CPU0 CPU1     |qedi_recovery_handler qedi_remove | __qedi_remove | iscsi_host_free | scsi_host_put | //free shost |     |iscsi_host_for_each_session |//use qedi->shost Cancel recovery_work and board_disable_work in
    __qedi_remove(). (CVE-2023-54100)

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 5.10.184-174.730. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.10-2023-034 advisory.

    A flaw was found in the Linux kernel Traffic Control (TC) subsystem. Using a specific networking     configuration (redirecting egress packets to ingress using TC action mirred) a local unprivileged user     could trigger a CPU soft lockup (ABBA deadlock) when the transport protocol in use (TCP or SCTP) does a     retransmission, resulting in a denial of service condition. (CVE-2022-4269)

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

    btrfs: unset reloc control if transaction commit fails in prepare_to_relocate() (CVE-2022-50067)

    There is a potential deadlock in the eBPF subsystem in the Linux kernel.

    The default sysctl configuration kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled on Amazon Linux does not allow     unprivileged users to use eBPF. (CVE-2023-0160)

    A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's networking subsystem within the RPL protocol's handling. This issue     results from the improper handling of user-supplied data, which can lead to an assertion failure. This     flaw allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to create a denial of service condition on the system.
    (CVE-2023-2156)

    A heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the Linux Kernel ipvlan network driver can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation.

    The out-of-bounds write is caused by missing skb->cb  initialization in the ipvlan network driver. The     vulnerability is reachable if CONFIG_IPVLAN is enabled.

    We recommend upgrading past commit 90cbed5247439a966b645b34eb0a2e037836ea8e. (CVE-2023-3090)

    A use after free vulnerability was found in prepare_to_relocate in fs/btrfs/relocation.c in btrfs in the     Linux Kernel. This possible flaw can be triggered by calling btrfs_ioctl_balance() before calling     btrfs_ioctl_defrag(). (CVE-2023-3111)

    A use-after-free flaw was found in r592_remove in drivers/memstick/host/r592.c in media access in the     Linux Kernel. This flaw allows a local attacker to crash the system at device disconnect, possibly leading     to a kernel information leak. (CVE-2023-3141)

    A flaw in the Linux Kernel found in the GFS2 file system. On corrupted gfs2 file systems the evict code     can try to reference the journal descriptor structure, jdesc, after it has been freed and set to NULL. It     can lead to null pointer dereference when gfs2_trans_begin being called and then fail     ingfs2_evict_inode(). (CVE-2023-3212)

    An out of bounds (OOB) memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel in relay_file_read_start_pos in     kernel/relay.c in the relayfs. This flaw could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak kernel     internal information. (CVE-2023-3268)

    An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.3.3. There is an out-of-bounds read in crc16 in     lib/crc16.c when called from fs/ext4/super.c because ext4_group_desc_csum does not properly check an     offset. (CVE-2023-34256)

    A use-after-free flaw was found in vcs_read in drivers/tty/vt/vc_screen.c in vc_screen in the Linux     Kernel. In this flaw an attacker with local user access may lead to a system crash or a leak of internal     kernel information. (CVE-2023-3567)

    An issue was discovered in fl_set_geneve_opt in net/sched/cls_flower.c in the Linux kernel before 6.3.7.
    It allows an out-of-bounds write in the flower classifier code via TCA_FLOWER_KEY_ENC_OPTS_GENEVE packets.
    This may result in denial of service or privilege escalation. (CVE-2023-35788)
