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

  - ice: copy last block omitted in ice_get_module_eeprom() ice_get_module_eeprom() is broken since commit     e9c9692c8a81 (ice: Reimplement module reads used by ethtool) In this refactor, ice_get_module_eeprom()     reads the eeprom in blocks of size 8. But the condition that should protect the buffer overflow ignores     the last block. The last block always contains zeros. Bug uncovered by ethtool upstream commit     9538f384b535 (netlink: eeprom: Defer page requests to individual parsers) After this commit, ethtool     reads a block with length = 1; to read the SFF-8024 identifier value. unpatched driver: $ ethtool -m     enp65s0f0np0 offset 0x90 length 8 Offset Values ------ ------ 0x0090: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 $ ethtool -m     enp65s0f0np0 offset 0x90 length 12 Offset Values ------ ------ 0x0090: 00 00 01 a0 4d 65 6c 6c 00 00 00 00     $ $ ethtool -m enp65s0f0np0 Offset Values ------ ------ 0x0000: 11 06 06 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00     00 00 0x0010: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0x0020: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00     00 00 00 00 0x0030: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0x0040: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00     00 00 00 00 00 00 0x0050: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0x0060: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00     00 00 00 00 00 01 08 00 0x0070: 00 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 patched driver: $ ethtool

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2025:02173-1 advisory.

    The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP5 kernel was updated to receive various security bugfixes.


    The following security bugs were fixed:

    - CVE-2022-49775: tcp: cdg: allow tcp_cdg_release() to be called multiple times (bsc#1242245).
    - CVE-2024-53168: net: make sock_inuse_add() available (bsc#1234887).
    - CVE-2024-56558: nfsd: make sure exp active before svc_export_show (bsc#1235100).
