parisc: fix a possible DMA corruption ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN was defined as 16 - this is too small - it may be possible that two unrelated 16-byte allocations share a cache line. If one of these allocations is written using DMA and the other is written using cached write, the value that was written with DMA may be corrupted.

    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that     may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information     leaks.

    For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in     version 6.1.119-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux packages.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

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

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: parisc: fix a possible DMA corruption     ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN was defined as 16 - this is too small - it may be possible that two unrelated 16-byte     allocations share a cache line. If one of these allocations is written using DMA and the other is written     using cached write, the value that was written with DMA may be corrupted. This commit changes     ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to be 128 on PA20 and 32 on PA1.1 - that's the largest possible cache line size. As     different parisc microarchitectures have different cache line size, we define arch_slab_minalign(),     cache_line_size() and dma_get_cache_alignment() so that the kernel may tune slab cache parameters     dynamically, based on the detected cache line size. (CVE-2024-44949)

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

The remote Oracle Linux 8 / 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2025-20095 advisory.
