In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xfs: fix a UAF problem in xattr repair The xchk_setup_xattr_buf function can allocate a new value buffer, which means that any reference to ab->value before the call could become a dangling pointer. Fix this by moving an assignment to after the buffer setup.

The remote Debian 13 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-6126 advisory.

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

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in     version 6.12.69-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux packages.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product 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.

  - xfs: fix a UAF problem in xattr repair The xchk_setup_xattr_buf function can allocate a new value buffer,     which means that any reference to ab->value before the call could become a dangling pointer. Fix this by     moving an assignment to after the buffer setup. (CVE-2025-68784)

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