  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.11.3 when a webcam device exists. video_usercopy in     drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.c has a memory leak for large arguments, aka CID-fb18802a338b.
    (CVE-2021-30002)

  - A flaw use-after-free in function sco_sock_sendmsg() of the Linux kernel HCI subsystem was found in the     way user calls ioct UFFDIO_REGISTER or other way triggers race condition of the call sco_conn_del()     together with the call sco_sock_sendmsg() with the expected controllable faulting memory page. A     privileged local user could use this flaw to crash the system or escalate their privileges on the system.
    (CVE-2021-3640)

  - A denial of service (DOS) issue was found in the Linux kernel's smb2_ioctl_query_info function in the     fs/cifs/smb2ops.c Common Internet File System (CIFS) due to an incorrect return from the memdup_user     function. This flaw allows a local, privileged (CAP_SYS_ADMIN) attacker to crash the system.
    (CVE-2022-0168)

  - A flaw null pointer dereference in the Linux kernel UDF file system functionality was found in the way     user triggers udf_file_write_iter function for the malicious UDF image. A local user could use this flaw     to crash the system. Actual from Linux kernel 4.2-rc1 till 5.17-rc2. (CVE-2022-0617)

  - A memory leak flaw was found in the Linux kernel's DMA subsystem, in the way a user calls DMA_FROM_DEVICE.
    This flaw allows a local user to read random memory from the kernel space. (CVE-2022-0854)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in net/netfilter/nf_tables_core.c:nft_do_chain, which can cause a     use-after-free. This issue needs to handle 'return' with proper preconditions, as it can lead to a kernel     information leak problem caused by a local, unprivileged attacker. (CVE-2022-1016)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's sound subsystem in the way a user triggers     concurrent calls of PCM hw_params. The hw_free ioctls or similar race condition happens inside ALSA PCM     for other ioctls. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the     system. (CVE-2022-1048)

  - A use-after-free exists in the Linux Kernel in tc_new_tfilter that could allow a local attacker to gain     privilege escalation. The exploit requires unprivileged user namespaces. We recommend upgrading past     commit 04c2a47ffb13c29778e2a14e414ad4cb5a5db4b5 (CVE-2022-1055)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in fs/ext4/namei.c:dx_insert_block() in the Linux kernel's filesystem sub-     component. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user privilege to cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2022-1184)

  - Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID: A-224546354References: Upstream kernel     (CVE-2022-20368)

  - A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's nft_set_desc_concat_parse() function .This flaw allows an     attacker to trigger a buffer overflow via nft_set_desc_concat_parse() , causing a denial of service and     possibly to run code. (CVE-2022-2078)

  - KGDB and KDB allow read and write access to kernel memory, and thus should be restricted during lockdown.
    An attacker with access to a serial port could trigger the debugger so it is important that the debugger     respect the lockdown mode when/if it is triggered. (CVE-2022-21499)

  - Certain Arm Cortex and Neoverse processors through 2022-03-08 do not properly restrict cache speculation,     aka Spectre-BHB. An attacker can leverage the shared branch history in the Branch History Buffer (BHB) to     influence mispredicted branches. Then, cache allocation can allow the attacker to obtain sensitive     information. (CVE-2022-23960)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/nfs/dir.c in the Linux kernel before 5.16.5. If an application sets the     O_DIRECTORY flag, and tries to open a regular file, nfs_atomic_open() performs a regular lookup. If a     regular file is found, ENOTDIR should occur, but the server instead returns uninitialized data in the file     descriptor. (CVE-2022-24448)

  - Non-transparent sharing of return predictor targets between contexts in some Intel(R) Processors may allow     an authorized user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2022-26373)

  - An integer coercion error was found in the openvswitch kernel module. Given a sufficiently large number of     actions, while copying and reserving memory for a new action of a new flow, the reserve_sfa_size()     function does not return -EMSGSIZE as expected, potentially leading to an out-of-bounds write access. This     flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-2639)

  - In drivers/hid/hid-elo.c in the Linux kernel before 5.16.11, a memory leak exists for a certain hid_parse     error condition. (CVE-2022-27950)

  - ems_usb_start_xmit in drivers/net/can/usb/ems_usb.c in the Linux kernel through 5.17.1 has a double free.
    (CVE-2022-28390)

  - The SUNRPC subsystem in the Linux kernel through 5.17.2 can call xs_xprt_free before ensuring that sockets     are in the intended state. (CVE-2022-28893)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of Pressure Stall Information. While the feature is     disabled by default, it could allow an attacker to crash the system or have other memory-corruption side     effects. (CVE-2022-2938)

  - Improper Update of Reference Count vulnerability in net/sched of Linux Kernel allows local attacker to     cause privilege escalation to root. This issue affects: Linux Kernel versions prior to 5.18; version 4.14     and later versions. (CVE-2022-29581)

  - nfqnl_mangle in net/netfilter/nfnetlink_queue.c in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14 allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) because, in the case of an nf_queue verdict with a one-byte     nfta_payload attribute, an skb_pull can encounter a negative skb->len. (CVE-2022-36946)

  - kernel: nf_tables cross-table potential use-after-free may lead to local privilege escalation     (CVE-2022-2586)

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

The remote CentOS Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the kernel-5.14.0-347.el9 build changelog.

  - A stack overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel's TIPC protocol functionality in the way a user sends     a packet with malicious content where the number of domain member nodes is higher than the 64 allowed.
    This flaw allows a remote user to crash the system or possibly escalate their privileges if they have     access to the TIPC network. (CVE-2022-0435)

  - An issue was discovered in net/tipc/crypto.c in the Linux kernel before 5.14.16. The Transparent Inter-     Process Communication (TIPC) functionality allows remote attackers to exploit insufficient validation of     user-supplied sizes for the MSG_CRYPTO message type. (CVE-2021-43267)

  - A vulnerability was found in Linux kernel, where a use-after-frees in nouveau's postclose() handler could     happen if removing device (that is not common to remove video card physically without power-off, but same     happens if unbind the driver). (CVE-2020-27820)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.16.11. The mixed IPID assignment method with the     hash-based IPID assignment policy allows an off-path attacker to inject data into a victim's TCP session     or terminate that session. (CVE-2020-36516)

  - A flaw in the processing of received ICMP errors (ICMP fragment needed and ICMP redirect) in the Linux     kernel functionality was found to allow the ability to quickly scan open UDP ports. This flaw allows an     off-path remote user to effectively bypass the source port UDP randomization. The highest threat from this     vulnerability is to confidentiality and possibly integrity, because software that relies on UDP source     port randomization are indirectly affected as well. (CVE-2021-20322)

    Mingi Cho discovered that the netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize a data     structure, leading to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. An attacker could use this to cause a     denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-1095)

    Kyle Zeng discovered that the ATM VC queuing discipline implementation in the Linux kernel contained a     type confusion vulnerability in some situations. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service     (system crash). (CVE-2023-23455)

    Lianhui Tang discovered that the MPLS implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle certain     sysctl allocation failure conditions, leading to a double-free vulnerability. An attacker could use this     to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-26545)

    It was discovered that the NTFS file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate     attributes in certain situations, leading to an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. A local attacker could     possibly use this to expose sensitive information (kernel memory). (CVE-2023-26607)

    Duoming Zhou discovered that a race condition existed in the infrared receiver/transceiver driver in the     Linux kernel, leading to a use-after- free vulnerability. A privileged attacker could use this to cause a     denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-1118)

The remote Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALINUX3-SA-2022:0029 advisory.

    Package updates are available for Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2022-0330:
    A random memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel's GPU i915 kernel driver functionality in the     way a user may run malicious code on the GPU. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system or     escalate their privileges on the system.

    CVE-2022-22942:
    ** RESERVED ** This candidate has been reserved by an organization or individual that will use it when     announcing a new security problem. When the candidate has been publicized, the details for this candidate     will be provided.

    CVE-2021-4197:
    An unprivileged write to the file handler flaw in the Linux kernel's control groups and namespaces     subsystem was found in the way users have access to some less privileged process that are controlled by     cgroups and have higher privileged parent process. It is actually both for cgroup2 and cgroup1 versions of     control groups. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system or escalate their privileges on the     system.

    CVE-2022-0185:
    A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the legacy_parse_param function in the Filesystem     Context functionality of the Linux kernel verified the supplied parameters length. An unprivileged (in     case of unprivileged user namespaces enabled, otherwise needs namespaced CAP_SYS_ADMIN privilege) local     user able to open a filesystem that does not support the Filesystem Context API (and thus fallbacks to     legacy handling) could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system.

    CVE-2022-0492:
    A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernels cgroup_release_agent_write in the     kernel/cgroup/cgroup-v1.c function. This flaw, under certain circumstances, allows the use of the cgroups     v1 release_agent feature to escalate privileges and bypass the namespace isolation unexpectedly.

    CVE-2022-1011:
    CVE-2022-1011 kernel: FUSE allows UAF reads of write() buffers, allowing theft of (partial) /etc/shadow     hashes

    CVE-2022-1016:
    CVE-2022-1016 kernel: uninitialized registers on stack in nft_do_chain can cause kernel pointer leakage to     UM

    CVE-2022-0995:
    CVE-2022-0995 kernel: kernel bug in the watch_queue subsystem

    CVE-2021-22600:
    CVE-2021-22600 kernel: double free in packet_set_ring() in net/packet/af_packet.c

    CVE-2022-27666:
    CVE-2022-27666 kernel: buffer overflow in IPsec ESP transformation code

    CVE-2022-25636:
    CVE-2022-25636 kernel: heap out of bounds write in nf_dup_netdev.c

    CVE-2020-36516:
    CVE-2020-36516 kernel: an off-path attacker may inject data or terminate a victim's TCP session

    CVE-2021-44879:
    CVE-2021-44879 kernel: NULL pointer dereference in folio_mark_dirty() via a crafted f2fs image

    CVE-2021-45402:
    CVE-2021-45402 kernel: pointer leak in check_alu_op() of kernel/bpf/verifier.c

    CVE-2022-24448:
    CVE-2022-24448 kernel: nfs_atomic_open() returns uninitialized data instead of ENOTDIR

    CVE-2021-4204:
    CVE-2021-4204 kernel: improper input validation may lead to privilege escalation

    CVE-2022-23222:
    CVE-2022-23222 kernel: local privileges escalation in kernel/bpf/verifier.c

    CVE-2021-4135:
    CVE-2021-4135 kernel: Heap information leak in map_lookup_elem function
