CBL Mariner 2.0 Security Update: hyperv-daemons / kernel (CVE-2022-47929)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 173031

Synopsis

The remote CBL Mariner host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of hyperv-daemons / kernel installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2022-47929 advisory.

 - In the Linux kernel before 6.1.6, a NULL pointer dereference bug in the traffic control subsystem allows an unprivileged user to trigger a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted traffic control configuration that is set up with tc qdisc and tc class commands. This affects qdisc_graft in net/sched/sch_api.c. (CVE-2022-47929)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
