The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-7595-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that the CIFS network file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly     verify the target namespace when handling upcalls. An attacker could use this to expose sensitive     information. (CVE-2025-2312)

    Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to     compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems:

    - GPIO subsystem;

    - GPU drivers;

    - InfiniBand drivers;

    - IRQ chip drivers;

    - Network drivers;

    - Mellanox network drivers;
