  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ksmbd, a high-performance in-kernel SMB server. The specific flaw     exists within the processing of SMB2_SESSION_SETUP and SMB2_LOGOFF commands. The issue results from the     lack of proper locking when performing operations on an object. An attacker can leverage this     vulnerability to execute code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2023-32257)

  - Closing of an event channel in the Linux kernel can result in a deadlock. This happens when the close is     being performed in parallel to an unrelated Xen console action and the handling of a Xen console interrupt     in an unprivileged guest. The closing of an event channel is e.g. triggered by removal of a paravirtual     device on the other side. As this action will cause console messages to be issued on the other side quite     often, the chance of triggering the deadlock is not neglectable. Note that 32-bit Arm-guests are not     affected, as the 32-bit Linux kernel on Arm doesn't use queued-RW-locks, which are required to trigger the     issue (on Arm32 a waiting writer doesn't block further readers to get the lock). (CVE-2023-34324)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 6.3.8. A use-after-free was found in ravb_remove in     drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/ravb_main.c. (CVE-2023-35827)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.5.9, exploitable by local users with userspace access     to MMIO registers.

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in lan78xx_disconnect in drivers/net/usb/lan78xx.c in the network sub-     component, net/usb/lan78xx in the Linux Kernel. This flaw allows a local attacker to crash the system when     the LAN78XX USB device detaches. (CVE-2023-6039)

  - A null pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel API for the cryptographic algorithm     scatterwalk functionality. This issue occurs when a user constructs a malicious packet with specific     socket configuration, which could allow a local user to crash the system or escalate their privileges on     the system. (CVE-2023-6176)

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

The remote Ubuntu 23.04 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6534-2 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in the USB subsystem in the Linux kernel through 6.4.2. There is an out-of-bounds     and crash in read_descriptors in drivers/usb/core/sysfs.c. (CVE-2023-37453)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem). This issue     may allow a malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to cause a 4 byte out-of-bounds read of     XFRMA_MTIMER_THRESH when parsing netlink attributes, leading to potential leakage of sensitive heap data     to userspace. (CVE-2023-3773)

  - A flaw was found in the Netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel. The nfnl_osf_add_callback function did     not validate the user mode controlled opt_num field. This flaw allows a local privileged (CAP_NET_ADMIN)     attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds read, leading to a crash or information disclosure. (CVE-2023-39189)

  - A flaw was found in the Netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel. The xt_u32 module did not validate the     fields in the xt_u32 structure. This flaw allows a local privileged attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds     read by setting the size fields with a value beyond the array boundaries, leading to a crash or     information disclosure. (CVE-2023-39192)

  - A flaw was found in the Netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel. The sctp_mt_check did not validate the     flag_count field. This flaw allows a local privileged (CAP_NET_ADMIN) attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds     read, leading to a crash or information disclosure. (CVE-2023-39193)

  - A flaw was found in the XFRM subsystem in the Linux kernel. The specific flaw exists within the processing     of state filters, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer. This flaw allows a local     privileged (CAP_NET_ADMIN) attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds read, potentially leading to an     information disclosure. (CVE-2023-39194)

  - A race condition was found in the QXL driver in the Linux kernel. The qxl_mode_dumb_create() function     dereferences the qobj returned by the qxl_gem_object_create_with_handle(), but the handle is the only one     holding a reference to it. This flaw allows an attacker to guess the returned handle value and trigger a     use-after-free issue, potentially leading to a denial of service or privilege escalation. (CVE-2023-39198)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel ipv4 stack. The socket buffer (skb) was     assumed to be associated with a device before calling __ip_options_compile, which is not always the case     if the skb is re-routed by ipvs. This issue may allow a local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to crash     the system. (CVE-2023-42754)

  - A flaw was found in vringh_kiov_advance in drivers/vhost/vringh.c in the host side of a virtio ring in the     Linux Kernel. This issue may result in a denial of service from guest to host via zero length descriptor.
    (CVE-2023-5158)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in drivers/nvme/target/tcp.c` in `nvmet_tcp_free_crypto` due to a     logical bug in the NVMe-oF/TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel. This issue may allow a malicious local     privileged user to cause a use-after-free and double-free problem, which may permit remote code execution     or lead to local privilege escalation problem. (CVE-2023-5178)

  - A heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Linux Kernel Performance Events (perf)     component can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation. If perf_read_group() is called while an     event's sibling_list is smaller than its child's sibling_list, it can increment or write to memory     locations outside of the allocated buffer. We recommend upgrading past commit     32671e3799ca2e4590773fd0e63aaa4229e50c06. (CVE-2023-5717)
