The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - PCI: Check ROM header and data structure addr before accessing We meet a crash when running stress-ng on     x86_64 machine: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffa0000007f40000 RIP:
    0010:pci_get_rom_size+0x52/0x220 Call Trace: <TASK> pci_map_rom+0x80/0x130 pci_read_rom+0x4b/0xe0     kernfs_file_read_iter+0x96/0x180 vfs_read+0x1b1/0x300 Our analysis reveals that the ROM space's start     address is 0xffa0000007f30000, and size is 0x10000. Because of broken ROM space, before calling     readl(pds), the pds's value is 0xffa0000007f3ffff, which is already pointed to the ROM space end, invoking     readl() would read 4 bytes therefore cause an out-of-bounds access and trigger a crash. Fix this by adding     image header and data structure checking. We also found another crash on arm64 machine: Unable to handle     kernel paging request at virtual address ffff8000dd1393ff Mem abort info: ESR = 0x0000000096000021 EC =     0x25: DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits SET = 0, FnV = 0 EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 FSC = 0x21: alignment fault The     call trace is the same with x86_64, but the crash reason is that the data structure addr is not aligned     with 4, and arm64 machine report alignment fault. Fix this by adding alignment checking. [bhelgaas:
