There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/alloc_tag: clear codetag for pages
    allocated before page_ext initialization Due to initialization ordering, page_ext is allocated and
    initialized relatively late during boot. Some pages have already been allocated and freed before page_ext
    becomes available, leaving their codetag uninitialized. A clear example is in init_section_page_ext():
    alloc_page_ext() calls kmemleak_alloc(). If the slab cache has no free objects, it falls back to the buddy
    allocator to allocate memory. However, at this point page_ext is not yet fully initialized, so these newly
    allocated pages have no codetag set. These pages may later be reclaimed by KASAN, which causes the warning
    to trigger when they are freed because their codetag ref is still empty. Use a global array to track pages
    allocated before page_ext is fully initialized. The array size is fixed at 8192 entries, and will emit a
    warning if this limit is exceeded. When page_ext initialization completes, set their codetag to empty to
    avoid warnings when they are freed later. This warning is only observed with
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=Y and mem_profiling_compressed disabled: [ 9.582133] ------------[ cut

The remote Ubuntu 26.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8489-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly handle shared page fragments during socket buffer     operations, collectively known as Dirty Frag. A logic flaw existed in the XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem and in     the RxRPC networking subsystem when processing paged fragments. A local attacker could use this to     escalate privileges, or possibly escape a container. (CVE-2026-43284, CVE-2026-43500, CVE-2026-45998,     CVE-2026-46000)

    It was discovered that a logic flaw existed in the XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel when     handling socket buffer fragments. This flaw is known as Fragnesia. A local attacker could use this to     escalate privileges, or possibly escape a container. (CVE-2026-43503, CVE-2026-46300)

    Qualys discovered that a race condition existed in the ptrace subsystem of the Linux kernel when     privileged processes are exiting. An unprivileged local attacker could use this issue to expose sensitive     information. (CVE-2026-46333)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contain a memory leak when handling     AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause resource exhaustion. (CVE-2026-47326)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contain a NULL pointer dereference     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause a kernel oops.
    (CVE-2026-47327)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained an invalid free when     handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to corrupt kernel memory.
    (CVE-2026-47328)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained insufficient validation of     AppArmor notification responses. A local attacker could use this to allow crafted responses to be     processed. (CVE-2026-47329)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 used an uninitialized variable when     handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause incorrect caching of data.
    (CVE-2026-47330)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained an out-of-bounds (OOB) read     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause information disclosure of     kernel memory. (CVE-2026-47332)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained a out-of-bounds (OOB) read     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause kernel memory corruption     and, theoretically, influence processing of AppArmor policies. (CVE-2026-47333)

    Tristan Madani discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contained incorrect holding of locks     when handling AppArmor notifications. A local attacker could use this to cause a kernel panic or deadlock.
    (CVE-2026-47334)

    Tristan Madani and Trevor Lawrence have each independently discovered that Ubuntu Linux kernel 6.8, 6.17     and 7.0 contained a NULL pointer dereference when handling AppArmor network socket mediation. A local     attacker could use this to cause a kernel oops. (CVE-2026-47337)

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

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.

  - mm/alloc_tag: clear codetag for pages allocated before page_ext initialization Due to initialization     ordering, page_ext is allocated and initialized relatively late during boot. Some pages have already been     allocated and freed before page_ext becomes available, leaving their codetag uninitialized. A clear     example is in init_section_page_ext(): alloc_page_ext() calls kmemleak_alloc(). If the slab cache has no     free objects, it falls back to the buddy allocator to allocate memory. However, at this point page_ext is     not yet fully initialized, so these newly allocated pages have no codetag set. These pages may later be     reclaimed by KASAN, which causes the warning to trigger when they are freed because their codetag ref is     still empty. Use a global array to track pages allocated before page_ext is fully initialized. The array     size is fixed at 8192 entries, and will emit a warning if this limit is exceeded. When page_ext     initialization completes, set their codetag to empty to avoid warnings when they are freed later. This     warning is only observed with CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=Y and mem_profiling_compressed disabled: [     9.582133] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 9.582137] alloc_tag was not set [ 9.582139] WARNING:

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

The remote Ubuntu 26.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8507-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that some AMD processors did not properly clear data in the floating point divider unit     during speculative execution. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information.
