The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 21.10 / 22.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5463-1 advisory.

  - ntfsck in NTFS-3G through 2021.8.22 has a heap-based buffer overflow involving buffer+512*3-2. NOTE: the     upstream position is that ntfsck is deprecated; however, it is shipped by some Linux distributions.
    (CVE-2021-46790)

  - An invalid return code in fuse_kern_mount enables intercepting of libfuse-lite protocol traffic between     NTFS-3G and the kernel in NTFS-3G through 2021.8.22 when using libfuse-lite. (CVE-2022-30783)

  - A crafted NTFS image can cause heap exhaustion in ntfs_get_attribute_value in NTFS-3G through 2021.8.22.
    (CVE-2022-30784)

  - A file handle created in fuse_lib_opendir, and later used in fuse_lib_readdir, enables arbitrary memory     read and write operations in NTFS-3G through 2021.8.22 when using libfuse-lite. (CVE-2022-30785)

  - A crafted NTFS image can cause a heap-based buffer overflow in ntfs_names_full_collate in NTFS-3G through     2021.8.22. (CVE-2022-30786)

  - An integer underflow in fuse_lib_readdir enables arbitrary memory read operations in NTFS-3G through     2021.8.22 when using libfuse-lite. (CVE-2022-30787)

  - A crafted NTFS image can cause a heap-based buffer overflow in ntfs_mft_rec_alloc in NTFS-3G through     2021.8.22. (CVE-2022-30788)

  - A crafted NTFS image can cause a heap-based buffer overflow in ntfs_check_log_client_array in NTFS-3G     through 2021.8.22. (CVE-2022-30789)
