The remote CentOS Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the kernel-5.14.0-554.el9 build changelog.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: asihpi: Fix potential OOB array     access ASIHPI driver stores some values in the static array upon a response from the driver, and its index     depends on the firmware. We shouldn't trust it blindly. This patch adds a sanity check of the array index     to fit in the array size. (CVE-2024-50007)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: hda: cs35l41: Possible null     pointer dereference in cs35l41_hda_unbind() The cs35l41_hda_unbind() function clears the hda_component     entry matching it's index and then dereferences the codec pointer held in the first element of the     hda_component array, this is an issue when the device index was 0. Instead use the codec pointer stashed     in the cs35l41_hda structure as it will still be valid. (CVE-2024-40964)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda: fix null deref     on system suspend entry When system enters suspend with an active stream, SOF core calls     hw_params_upon_resume(). On Intel platforms with HDA DMA used to manage the link DMA, this leads to call     chain of hda_dsp_set_hw_params_upon_resume() -> hda_dsp_dais_suspend() -> hda_dai_suspend() ->     hda_ipc4_post_trigger() A bug is hit in hda_dai_suspend() as hda_link_dma_cleanup() is run first, which     clears hext_stream->link_substream, and then hda_ipc4_post_trigger() is called with a NULL     snd_pcm_substream pointer. (CVE-2024-41037)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: topology: Fix references to     freed memory Most users after parsing a topology file, release memory used by it, so having pointer     references directly into topology file contents is wrong. Use devm_kmemdup(), to allocate memory as     needed. (CVE-2024-41069)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: amd: acp: add a null check for     chip_pdev structure When acp platform device creation is skipped, chip->chip_pdev value will remain NULL.
    Add NULL check for chip->chip_pdev structure in snd_acp_resume() function to avoid null pointer     dereference. (CVE-2024-42074)

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: ASoC: Intel: soc-acpi-intel-mtl-match:
    add missing empty item There is no links_num in struct snd_soc_acpi_mach {}, and we test !link->num_adr as     a condition to end the loop in hda_sdw_machine_select(). So an empty item in struct snd_soc_acpi_link_adr     array is required. (CVE-2024-46862)

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

The Rocky Linux 9.6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the CIQ ciqsa-2026_1178 advisory.

    This advisory aggregates security fixes for the kernel SRPM in CIQ LTS 9.6. It addresses 449 CVEs:
    CVE-2024-41037, CVE-2024-50189, CVE-2024-50039, CVE-2024-36013, CVE-2024-56605, and 444 more.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the CIQ security advisory.

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