In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: io_uring/cmd_net: fix wrong argument types for skb_queue_splice() If timestamp retriving needs to be retried and the local list of SKB's already has entries, then it's spliced back into the socket queue. However, the arguments for the splice helper are transposed, causing exactly the wrong direction of splicing into the on-stack list. Fix that up.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES12 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:1078-1 advisory.

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 remote Ubuntu 24.04 LTS / 25.10 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8094-1 advisory.

    Qualys discovered that several vulnerabilities existed in the AppArmor Linux kernel Security Module (LSM).
    An unprivileged local attacker could use these issues to load, replace, and remove arbitrary AppArmor     profiles causing denial of service, exposure of sensitive information (kernel memory), local privilege     escalation, or possibly escape a container. (LP: #2143853)

    It was discovered that some AMD Zen 5 processors supporting RDSEED instruction did not properly handle     entropy, potentially resulting in the consumption of insufficiently random values. A local attacker could     possibly use this issue to influence the values returned by the RDSEED instruction causing loss of     confidentiality and integrity. (CVE-2025-62626)

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

  - io_uring/cmd_net: fix wrong argument types for skb_queue_splice() If timestamp retriving needs to be     retried and the local list of SKB's already has entries, then it's spliced back into the socket queue.
    However, the arguments for the splice helper are transposed, causing exactly the wrong direction of     splicing into the on-stack list. Fix that up. (CVE-2025-68234)

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