The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.4.186-102.354. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.4-2022-024 advisory.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    mm/damon/dbgfs: fix 'struct pid' leaks in 'dbgfs_target_ids_write()' (CVE-2021-46937)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    mm/damon/dbgfs: protect targets destructions with kdamond_lock (CVE-2021-47088)

    A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in linux/net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c of the netfilter subsystem.
    This flaw allows a local user to cause an out-of-bounds write issue. (CVE-2022-1015)

    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 vulnerability was found in the tc_new_tfilter function in net/sched/cls_api.c in the     Linux kernel. The availability of local, unprivileged user namespaces allows privilege escalation.
    (CVE-2022-1055)

    An out-of-bounds (OOB) memory access flaw was found in nft_fwd_dup_netdev_offload in     net/netfilter/nf_dup_netdev.c in the netfilter subcomponent in the Linux kernel due to a heap out-of-     bounds write problem. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user account on the system to gain access     to out-of-bounds memory, leading to a system crash or a privilege escalation threat. (CVE-2022-25636)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    drm/vrr: Set VRR capable prop only if it is attached to connector (CVE-2022-48843)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    net-sysfs: add check for netdevice being present to speed_show (CVE-2022-48850)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    sctp: fix kernel-infoleak for SCTP sockets (CVE-2022-48855)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    net/mlx5: Fix a race on command flush flow (CVE-2022-48858)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    netfilter: nf_queue: fix possible use-after-free (CVE-2022-48911)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    netfilter: fix use-after-free in __nf_register_net_hook() (CVE-2022-48912)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    xen/netfront: destroy queues before real_num_tx_queues is zeroed (CVE-2022-48914)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    cifs: fix double free race when mount fails in cifs_get_root() (CVE-2022-48919)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    RDMA/ib_srp: Fix a deadlock (CVE-2022-48930)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    configfs: fix a race in configfs_{,un}register_subsystem() (CVE-2022-48931)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    netfilter: nf_tables: fix memory leak during stateful obj update (CVE-2022-48933)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    netfilter: nf_tables: initialize registers in nft_do_chain() (CVE-2022-49293)

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

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