Synopsis

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

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2024:0115-1 advisory.

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP5 RT kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed:

- CVE-2023-6531: Fixed a use-after-free flaw due to a race problem in the unix garbage collector's deletion of SKB races with unix_stream_read_generic()on the socket that the SKB is queued on (bsc#1218447).
- CVE-2023-6610: Fixed an out of bounds read in the SMB client when printing debug information (bsc#1217946).
- CVE-2023-51779: Fixed a use-after-free because of a bt_sock_ioctl race condition in bt_sock_recvmsg (bsc#1218559).
- CVE-2020-26555: Fixed Bluetooth legacy BR/EDR PIN code pairing in Bluetooth Core Specification 1.0B that may permit an unauthenticated nearby device to spoof the BD_ADDR of the peer device to complete pairing without knowledge of the PIN (bsc#1179610 bsc#1215237).
- CVE-2023-6606: Fixed an out of bounds read in the SMB client when receiving a malformed length from a server (bsc#1217947).
- CVE-2023-6546: Fixed a race condition in the GSM 0710 tty multiplexor via the GSMIOC_SETCONF ioctl that could lead to local privilege escalation (bsc#1218335).
- CVE-2023-6931: Fixed a heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Performance Events system component that could lead to local privilege escalation. (bsc#1218258).
- CVE-2023-6932: Fixed a use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's ipv4: igmp component that could lead to local privilege escalation (bsc#1218253).
- CVE-2023-6622: Fixed a null pointer dereference vulnerability in nft_dynset_init() that could allow a local attacker with CAP_NET_ADMIN user privilege to trigger a denial of service (bsc#1217938).
- CVE-2023-6121: Fixed an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the NVMe-oF/TCP subsystem that could lead to information leak (bsc#1217250).
