A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux Kernel. When a disk is removed, bdi_unregister is called to stop further write-back and waits for associated delayed work to complete. However, wb_inode_writeback_end() may schedule bandwidth estimation work after this has completed, which can result in the timer attempting to access the recently freed bdi_writeback.

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux Kernel. When a disk is removed, bdi_unregister is called to     stop further write-back and waits for associated delayed work to complete. However,     wb_inode_writeback_end() may schedule bandwidth estimation work after this has completed, which can result     in the timer attempting to access the recently freed bdi_writeback. (CVE-2024-0562)

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

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2024:0412 advisory.

    The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system.
