Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:3585-1 advisory.

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP4 kernel was updated.

The following security bugs were fixed:

- CVE-2022-3303: Fixed a race condition in the sound subsystem due to improper locking (bnc#1203769).
- CVE-2022-41218: Fixed an use-after-free caused by refcount races in drivers/media/dvb-core/dmxdev.c (bnc#1202960).
- CVE-2022-3239: Fixed an use-after-free in the video4linux driver that could lead a local user to able to crash the system or escalate their privileges (bnc#1203552).
- CVE-2022-41848: Fixed a race condition and resultant use-after-free if a physically proximate attacker removes a PCMCIA device while calling ioctl (bnc#1203987).
- CVE-2022-41849: Fixed a race condition and resultant use-after-free if a physically proximate attacker removes a USB device while calling open (bnc#1203992).
- CVE-2022-2586: Fixed a use-after-free which can be triggered when a nft table is deleted (bnc#1202095).
- CVE-2022-1263: Fixed a NULL pointer dereference issue was found in KVM when releasing a vCPU with dirty ring support enabled. This flaw allowed an unprivileged local attacker on the host to issue specific ioctl calls, causing a kernel oops condition that results in a denial of service (bnc#1198189).
- CVE-2022-3202: Fixed a NULL pointer dereference flaw in Journaled File System. This could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak kernel internal information (bnc#1203389).
- CVE-2022-39189: Fixed a bug in the x86 KVM subsystem which allows unprivileged guest users to compromise the guest kernel because TLB flush operations are mishandled (bnc#1203066).

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.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
