medium Nessus Plugin ID 292354

Synopsis

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

Description

The remote MiracleLinux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2024-8387:14 advisory.

* kernel: Marvin vulnerability side-channel leakage in the RSA decryption operation (CVE-2023-6240)
* CVE-2024-25743 hw: amd: Instruction raise #VC exception at exit (AMD- SN-3008,CVE-2024-25742,CVE-2024-25743) CVE-2023-6240 A Marvin vulnerability side-channel leakage was found in the RSA decryption operation in the Linux Kernel.
This issue may allow a network attacker to decrypt ciphertexts or forge signatures, limiting the services that use that private key.
CVE-2024-25742 In the Linux kernel before 6.9, an untrusted hypervisor can inject virtual interrupt 29 (#VC) at any point in time and can trigger its handler. This affects AMD SEV-SNP and AMD SEV-ES.CVE-2024-25743 In the Linux kernel through 6.9, an untrusted hypervisor can inject virtual interrupts 0 and 14 at any point in time and can trigger the SIGFPE signal handler in userspace applications. This affects AMD SEV- SNP and AMD SEV-ES.

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.
