The remote CentOS Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2022:7337 advisory.

  - Mis-trained branch predictions for return instructions may allow arbitrary speculative code execution     under certain microarchitecture-dependent conditions. (CVE-2022-29900)

  - It was discovered that the cls_route filter implementation in the Linux kernel would not remove an old     filter from the hashtable before freeing it if its handle had the value 0. (CVE-2022-2588)

  - Rejected reason: DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER. ConsultIDs: none. Reason: This candidate is unused by     its CNA. Notes: none. (CVE-2022-23816)

  - Aliases in the branch predictor may cause some AMD processors to predict the wrong branch type potentially     leading to information disclosure. (CVE-2022-23825)

  - Non-transparent sharing of return predictor targets between contexts in some Intel(R) Processors may allow     an authorized user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2022-26373)

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