Synopsis
The remote AlmaLinux host is missing one or more security updates.Description
The remote AlmaLinux 10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALSA-2026:4012 advisory.* kernel: Linux kernel: Use-after-free in device mapper due to race condition in zone reporting (CVE-2025-38141)
* kernel: Linux kernel io_uring: Local privilege escalation, information disclosure, or denial of service via use-after-free (CVE-2025-38106)
* kernel: drm/xe: Make dma-fences compliant with the safe access rules (CVE-2025-38703)
* kernel: Linux kernel: Denial of Service via out-of-bounds read in USB configuration parsing (CVE-2025-39760)
* kernel: HID: intel-thc-hid: intel-thc: Fix incorrect pointer arithmetic in I2C regs save (CVE-2025-39818)
* kernel: Kernel: Use-after-free in GPIO character device allows privilege escalation or denial of service (CVE-2025-40249)
* kernel: ipv6: BUG() in pskb_expand_head() as part of calipso_skbuff_setattr() (CVE-2025-71085)
* kernel: macvlan: fix possible UAF in macvlan_forward_source() (CVE-2026-23001)
* kernel: Linux kernel: Denial of Service due to a deadlock in hugetlb folio migration (CVE-2026-23097)
* kernel: Linux kernel: Information disclosure in efivarfs via incorrect error propagation (CVE-2026-23156)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the AlmaLinux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
