In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: nSVM: Remove a user-triggerable WARN on nested_svm_load_cr3() succeeding Drop the WARN in svm_set_nested_state() on nested_svm_load_cr3() failing as it is trivially easy to trigger from userspace by modifying CPUID after loading CR3. E.g. modifying the state restoration selftest like so: --- tools/testing/selftests/kvm/x86/state_test.c +++ tools/testing/selftests/kvm/x86/state_test.c @@ -280,7 +280,16 @@ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) /* Restore state in a new VM. */ vcpu = vm_recreate_with_one_vcpu(vm); - vcpu_load_state(vcpu, state); + + if (stage == 4) { + state->sregs.cr3 = BIT(44); + vcpu_load_state(vcpu, state); + + vcpu_set_cpuid_property(vcpu, X86_PROPERTY_MAX_PHY_ADDR, 36); + __vcpu_nested_state_set(vcpu, &state->nested); + } else { + vcpu_load_state(vcpu, state); + } /* * Restore XSAVE state in a dummy vCPU, first without doing generates: WARNING: CPU: 30 PID: 938 at arch/x86/kvm/svm/nested.c:1877 svm_set_nested_state+0x34a/0x360 [kvm_amd] Modules linked in: kvm_amd kvm irqbypass [last unloaded: kvm] CPU: 30 UID: 1000 PID: 938 Comm: state_test Tainted: G W 6.18.0-rc7-58e10b63777d-next-vm Tainted: [W]=WARN Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 0.0.0 02/06/2015 RIP: 0010:svm_set_nested_state+0x34a/0x360 [kvm_amd] Call Trace: <TASK> kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl+0xf33/0x1700 [kvm] kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x4e6/0x8f0 [kvm] __x64_sys_ioctl+0x8f/0xd0 do_syscall_64+0x61/0xad0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x4b/0x53 Simply delete the WARN instead of trying to prevent userspace from shoving "illegal" state into CR3. For better or worse, KVM's ABI allows userspace to set CPUID after SREGS, and vice versa, and KVM is very permissive when it comes to guest CPUID. I.e. attempting to enforce the virtual CPU model when setting CPUID could break userspace. Given that the WARN doesn't provide any meaningful protection for KVM or benefit for userspace, simply drop it even though the odds of breaking userspace are minuscule. Opportunistically delete a spurious newline.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle Linux 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 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8497-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly handle shared page fragments during socket buffer     operations, collectively known as Dirty Frag. A logic flaw existed in the XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem and in     the RxRPC networking subsystem when processing paged fragments. A local attacker could use this to     escalate privileges, or possibly escape a container. (CVE-2026-43284, CVE-2026-43500, CVE-2026-45998,     CVE-2026-46000)

    It was discovered that a logic flaw existed in the XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel when     handling socket buffer fragments. This flaw is known as Fragnesia. A local attacker could use this to     escalate privileges, or possibly escape a container. (CVE-2026-43503, CVE-2026-46300)

    Qualys discovered that a race condition existed in the ptrace subsystem of the Linux kernel when     privileged processes are exiting. An unprivileged local attacker could use this issue to expose sensitive     information. (CVE-2026-46333)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contain a memory leak when handling     AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause resource exhaustion. (CVE-2026-47326)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contain a NULL pointer dereference     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause a kernel oops.
    (CVE-2026-47327)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained an invalid free when     handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to corrupt kernel memory.
    (CVE-2026-47328)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained insufficient validation of     AppArmor notification responses. A local attacker could use this to allow crafted responses to be     processed. (CVE-2026-47329)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 used an uninitialized variable when     handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause incorrect caching of data.
    (CVE-2026-47330)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8 contained a use- after-free (UAF) bug. A local     attacker could use this to cause memory corruption and, theoretically, arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2026-47331)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained an out-of-bounds (OOB) read     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause information disclosure of     kernel memory. (CVE-2026-47332)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained a out-of-bounds (OOB) read     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause kernel memory corruption     and, theoretically, influence processing of AppArmor policies. (CVE-2026-47333)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained incorrect holding of locks     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause a kernel panic or deadlock.
    (CVE-2026-47334)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8 contained a NULL pointer dereference when handling     AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause a kernel panic. (CVE-2026-47335)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8 used an uninitialized variable when handling     AppArmor AF_INET/AF_INET6 socket mediation. A local attacker could use this to influence processing of     fine- grained network socket mediation. (CVE-2026-47336)

    Tristan Madani and Trevor Lawrence have each independently discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17     and 7.0 contained a NULL pointer dereference when handling AppArmor network socket mediation. A local     attacker could use this to cause a kernel oops. (CVE-2026-47337)

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 remote Ubuntu 24.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8499-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that the Linux kernel algif_aead module did not properly handle in-place cryptographic     operations. This flaw is known as Copy Fail. A local attacker could use this to escalate privileges, or     possibly escape a container. (CVE-2026-31431)

    It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly handle shared page fragments during socket buffer     operations, collectively known as Dirty Frag. A logic flaw existed in the XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem and in     the RxRPC networking subsystem when processing paged fragments. A local attacker could use this to     escalate privileges, or possibly escape a container. (CVE-2026-43284, CVE-2026-43500, CVE-2026-45998,     CVE-2026-46000)

    It was discovered that a logic flaw existed in the XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel when     handling socket buffer fragments. This flaw is known as Fragnesia. A local attacker could use this to     escalate privileges, or possibly escape a container. (CVE-2026-43503, CVE-2026-46300)

    Qualys discovered that a race condition existed in the ptrace subsystem of the Linux kernel when     privileged processes are exiting. An unprivileged local attacker could use this issue to expose sensitive     information. (CVE-2026-46333)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contain a memory leak when handling     AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause resource exhaustion. (CVE-2026-47326)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contain a NULL pointer dereference     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause a kernel oops.
    (CVE-2026-47327)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained an invalid free when     handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to corrupt kernel memory.
    (CVE-2026-47328)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained insufficient validation of     AppArmor notification responses. A local attacker could use this to allow crafted responses to be     processed. (CVE-2026-47329)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 used an uninitialized variable when     handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause incorrect caching of data.
    (CVE-2026-47330)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8 contained a use- after-free (UAF) bug. A local     attacker could use this to cause memory corruption and, theoretically, arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2026-47331)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained an out-of-bounds (OOB) read     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause information disclosure of     kernel memory. (CVE-2026-47332)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained a out-of-bounds (OOB) read     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause kernel memory corruption     and, theoretically, influence processing of AppArmor policies. (CVE-2026-47333)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained incorrect holding of locks     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause a kernel panic or deadlock.
    (CVE-2026-47334)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8 contained a NULL pointer dereference when handling     AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause a kernel panic. (CVE-2026-47335)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8 used an uninitialized variable when handling     AppArmor AF_INET/AF_INET6 socket mediation. A local attacker could use this to influence processing of     fine- grained network socket mediation. (CVE-2026-47336)

    Tristan Madani and Trevor Lawrence have each independently discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17     and 7.0 contained a NULL pointer dereference when handling AppArmor network socket mediation. A local     attacker could use this to cause a kernel oops. (CVE-2026-47337)

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.

  - KVM: nSVM: Remove a user-triggerable WARN on nested_svm_load_cr3() succeeding Drop the WARN in     svm_set_nested_state() on nested_svm_load_cr3() failing as it is trivially easy to trigger from userspace     by modifying CPUID after loading CR3. E.g. modifying the state restoration selftest like so: ---     tools/testing/selftests/kvm/x86/state_test.c +++ tools/testing/selftests/kvm/x86/state_test.c @@ -280,7     +280,16 @@ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) /* Restore state in a new VM. */ vcpu =     vm_recreate_with_one_vcpu(vm); - vcpu_load_state(vcpu, state); + + if (stage == 4) { + state->sregs.cr3 =     BIT(44); + vcpu_load_state(vcpu, state); + + vcpu_set_cpuid_property(vcpu, X86_PROPERTY_MAX_PHY_ADDR, 36);

For better or worse, KVM's ABI allows     userspace to set CPUID after SREGS, and vice versa, and KVM is very permissive when it comes to guest     CPUID. I.e. attempting to enforce the virtual CPU model when setting CPUID could break userspace. Given     that the WARN doesn't provide any meaningful protection for KVM or benefit for userspace, simply drop it     even though the odds of breaking userspace are minuscule. Opportunistically delete a spurious newline.

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