Synopsis

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

Description

The remote MiracleLinux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2024-9046:38 advisory.

 * net/mlx5e: SHAMPO, Fix invalid WQ linked list unlink {CVE-2024-44970}
 * PCI: Add missing bridge lock to pci_bus_lock() {CVE-2024-46750}
 * net/mlx5: Discard command completions in internal error {CVE-2024-38555}
 * ALSA: pcm: Fix races among concurrent prealloc proc writes {CVE-2022-1048}
 * ALSA: pcm: Add debug print on memory allocation failure {CVE-2022-1048}
 * ALSA: pcm: Fix races among concurrent prepare and hw_params/hw_free calls {CVE-2022-1048}
 * ALSA: pcm: Fix races among concurrent read/write and buffer changes {CVE-2022-1048}
 * ALSA: pcm: Fix races among concurrent hw_params and hw_free calls {CVE-2022-1048}
 * net/packet: fix slab-out-of-bounds access in packet_recvmsg() {CVE-2022-20368}
 * packet: in recvmsg msg_name return at least sizeof sockaddr_ll {CVE-2022-20368}
 * Revert net/packet: fix slab-out-of-bounds access in packet_recvmsg()
 * KVM: VMX: Execute IBPB on emulated VM-exit when guest has IBRS {CVE-2022-2196} CVE(s):
 CVE-2022-1048 A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernels sound subsystem in the way a user triggers concurrent calls of PCM hw_params. The hw_free ioctls or similar race condition happens inside ALSA PCM for other ioctls. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.
 CVE-2022-20368 Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID: A-224546354References: Upstream kernel CVE-2022-2196 A regression exists in the Linux Kernel within KVM: nVMX that allowed for speculative execution attacks.
 L2 can carry out Spectre v2 attacks on L1 due to L1 thinking it doesn't need retpolines or IBPB after running L2 due to KVM (L0) advertising eIBRS support to L1. An attacker at L2 with code execution can execute code on an indirect branch on the host machine. We recommend upgrading to Kernel 6.2 or past commit 2e7eab81425a CVE-2024-38555 In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5: Discard command completions in internal error Fix use after free when FW completion arrives while device is in internal error state.
 Avoid calling completion handler in this case, since the device will flush the command interface and trigger all completions manually. Kernel log: ------------[ cut here ]------------ refcount_t: underflow;

 __common_interrupt+0x3b/0xa0 common_interrupt+0x7b/0xa0 asm_common_interrupt+0x22/0x40 CVE-2024-44970 In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5e: SHAMPO, Fix invalid WQ linked list unlink When all the strides in a WQE have been consumed, the WQE is unlinked from the WQ linked list (mlx5_wq_ll_pop()). For SHAMPO, it is possible to receive CQEs with 0 consumed strides for the same WQE even after the WQE is fully consumed and unlinked. This triggers an additional unlink for the same wqe which corrupts the linked list. Fix this scenario by accepting 0 sized consumed strides without unlinking the WQE again.
 CVE-2024-46750 In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: PCI: Add missing bridge lock to pci_bus_lock() One of the true positives that the cfg_access_lock lockdep effort identified is this sequence: WARNING: CPU: 14 PID: 1 at drivers/pci/pci.c:4886 pci_bridge_secondary_bus_reset+0x5d/0x70 RIP:

Ironically pci_bus_reset(), several calls down from pci_reset_bus(), uses pci_bus_lock() before issuing the reset which locks everything *but* the bridge itself. For the same motivation as adding: bridge = pci_upstream_bridge(dev); if (bridge) pci_dev_lock(bridge); to pci_reset_function() for the bus and cxl_bus reset cases, add pci_dev_lock() for @bus->self to pci_bus_lock().

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux 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.
