high Nessus Plugin ID 352831

Synopsis

The CentOS Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The CentOS Linux 8.4 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare CENTOS8.4:CLSA-2025:1757961864 advisory.

- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: can: peak_usb: fix use after free bugs After calling peak_usb_netif_rx_ni(skb), dereferencing skb is unsafe. Especially, the can_frame cf which aliases skb memory is accessed after the peak_usb_netif_rx_ni(). Reordering the lines solves the issue.
(CVE-2021-47670)

- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: storvsc: Remove WQ_MEM_RECLAIM from storvsc_error_wq storvsc_error_wq workqueue should not be marked as WQ_MEM_RECLAIM as it doesn't need to make forward progress under memory pressure. Marking this workqueue as WQ_MEM_RECLAIM may cause deadlock while flushing a non-WQ_MEM_RECLAIM workqueue. In the current state it causes the following warning: [ 14.506347] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 14.506354] workqueue: WQ_MEM_RECLAIM storvsc_error_wq_0:storvsc_remove_lun is flushing !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM events_freezable_power_:disk_events_workfn [ 14.506360] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 8 at <-snip->kernel/workqueue.c:2623 check_flush_dependency+0xb5/0x130 [ 14.506390] CPU: 0 PID: 8 Comm:

- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nft_tproxy: restrict to prerouting hook TPROXY is only allowed from prerouting, but nft_tproxy doesn't check this. This fixes a crash (null dereference) when using tproxy from e.g. output. (CVE-2022-50001)

- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ice: xsk: prohibit usage of non- balanced queue id Fix the following scenario: 1. ethtool -L $IFACE rx 8 tx 96 2. xdpsock -q 10 -t -z Above refers to a case where user would like to attach XSK socket in txonly mode at a queue id that does not have a corresponding Rx queue. At this moment ice's XSK logic is tightly bound to act on a queue pair, e.g. both Tx and Rx queues at a given queue id are disabled/enabled and both of them will get XSK pool assigned, which is broken for the presented queue configuration. This results in the splat included at the bottom, which is basically an OOB access to Rx ring array. To fix this, allow using the ids only in scope of combined queues reported by ethtool. However, logic should be rewritten to allow such configurations later on, which would end up as a complete rewrite of the control path, so let us go with this temporary fix.

---truncated--- (CVE-2022-50003)

- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda-ipc: Do not process IPC reply before firmware boot It is not yet clear, but it is possible to create a firmware so broken that it will send a reply message before a FW_READY message (it is not yet clear if FW_READY will arrive later). Since the reply_data is allocated only after the FW_READY message, this will lead to a NULL pointer dereference if not filtered out. The issue was reported with IPC4 firmware but the same condition is present for IPC3. (CVE-2022-50015)

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 based on the guidance in TuxCare advisory CENTOS8.4:CLSA-2025:1757961864.
