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

  - ntfs: fix use-after-free in ntfs_attr_find() Patch series ntfs: fix bugs about Attribute, v2. This     patchset fixes three bugs relative to Attribute in record: Patch 1 adds a sanity check to ensure that,     attrs_offset field in first mft record loading from disk is within bounds. Patch 2 moves the ATTR_RECORD's     bounds checking earlier, to avoid dereferencing ATTR_RECORD before checking this ATTR_RECORD is within     bounds. Patch 3 adds an overflow checking to avoid possible forever loop in ntfs_attr_find(). Without     patch 1 and patch 2, the kernel triggersa KASAN use-after-free detection as reported by Syzkaller.
    Although one of patch 1 or patch 2 can fix this, we still need both of them. Because patch 1 fixes the     root cause, and patch 2 not only fixes the direct cause, but also fixes the potential out-of-bounds bug.
    This patch (of 3): Syzkaller reported use-after-free read as follows:

Yet the problem is that after loading, kernel doesn't check whether     attrs_offset field is a valid value. To be more specific, if attrs_offset field is larger than     bytes_allocated field, then it may trigger the out-of-bounds read bug(reported as use-after-free bug) in     ntfs_attr_find(), when kernel tries to access the corresponding mft record's attribute. This patch solves     it by adding the sanity check between attrs_offset field and bytes_allocated field, after loading the     first mft record. (CVE-2022-49763)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.4.226-129.415. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.4-2024-071 advisory.

    A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A denial of service flaw may occur if there is a consecutive request     of the NVME_IOCTL_RESET and the NVME_IOCTL_SUBSYS_RESET through the device file of the driver, resulting     in a PCIe link disconnect. (CVE-2022-3169)
