    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that     may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information     leaks.

    For the oldstable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed     in version 6.1.147-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux packages.

    For the detailed security status of linux please refer to its security     tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/linux

    Further information about Debian Security Advisories, how to apply     these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be     found at: https://www.debian.org/security/

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