The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2023:3924-1 advisory.

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_u32 component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation. If tcf_change_indev() fails, u32_set_parms() will immediately return     an error after incrementing or decrementing the reference counter in tcf_bind_filter(). If an attacker can     control the reference counter and set it to zero, they can cause the reference to be freed, leading to a     use-after-free vulnerability. We recommend upgrading past commit 04c55383fa5689357bcdd2c8036725a55ed632bc.
    (CVE-2023-3609)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_fw component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation. If tcf_change_indev() fails, fw_set_parms() will immediately return an     error after incrementing or decrementing the reference counter in tcf_bind_filter(). If an attacker can     control the reference counter and set it to zero, they can cause the reference to be freed, leading to a     use-after-free vulnerability. We recommend upgrading past commit 0323bce598eea038714f941ce2b22541c46d488f.
    (CVE-2023-3776)

  - A flaw was found in the exFAT driver of the Linux kernel. The vulnerability exists in the implementation     of the file name reconstruction function, which is responsible for reading file name entries from a     directory index and merging file name parts belonging to one file into a single long file name. Since the     file name characters are copied into a stack variable, a local privileged attacker could use this flaw to     overflow the kernel stack. (CVE-2023-4273)

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

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

The remote Oracle Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2023-6583 advisory.

  - A vulnerability was found in Linux Kernel. It has been declared as problematic. Affected by this     vulnerability is the function intr_callback of the file drivers/net/usb/r8152.c of the component BPF. The     manipulation leads to logging of excessive data. The attack can be launched remotely. It is recommended to     apply a patch to fix this issue. The associated identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-211363.
    (CVE-2022-3594)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's TUN/TAP functionality. This issue could allow a local user to     bypass network filters and gain unauthorized access to some resources. The original patches fixing     CVE-2023-1076 are incorrect or incomplete. The problem is that the following upstream commits -     a096ccca6e50 (tun: tun_chr_open(): correctly initialize socket uid), - 66b2c338adce (tap: tap_open():
    correctly initialize socket uid), pass inode->i_uid to sock_init_data_uid() as the last parameter and     that turns out to not be accurate. (CVE-2023-4194)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in r592_remove in drivers/memstick/host/r592.c in media access in the     Linux Kernel. This flaw allows a local attacker to crash the system at device disconnect, possibly leading     to a kernel information leak. (CVE-2023-3141)

  - In the Linux kernel before 6.1.13, there is a double free in net/mpls/af_mpls.c upon an allocation failure     (for registering the sysctl table under a new location) during the renaming of a device. (CVE-2023-26545)

  - A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in Linux Kernel. Affected by this issue     is the function del_timer of the file drivers/isdn/mISDN/l1oip_core.c of the component Bluetooth. The     manipulation leads to use after free. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue. The identifier     of this vulnerability is VDB-211088. (CVE-2022-3565)

  - A use-after-free(UAF) vulnerability was found in function 'vmw_cmd_res_check' in     drivers/gpu/vmxgfx/vmxgfx_execbuf.c in Linux kernel's vmwgfx driver with device file '/dev/dri/renderD128     (or Dxxx)'. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user account on the system to gain privilege, causing     a denial of service(DoS). (CVE-2022-38457)

  - There is an infoleak vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c's l2cap_parse_conf_req     function which can be used to leak kernel pointers remotely. We recommend upgrading past commit     https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/b1a2cd50c0357f243b7435a732b4e62ba3157a2e     https://www.google.com/url (CVE-2022-42895)

  - A flaw was found in the Framebuffer Console (fbcon) in the Linux Kernel. When providing font->width and     font->height greater than 32 to fbcon_set_font, since there are no checks in place, a shift-out-of-bounds     occurs leading to undefined behavior and possible denial of service. (CVE-2023-3161)

  - A null pointer dereference was found in the Linux kernel's Integrated Sensor Hub (ISH) driver. This issue     could allow a local user to crash the system. (CVE-2023-3358)

  - A use-after-free(UAF) vulnerability was found in function 'vmw_execbuf_tie_context' in     drivers/gpu/vmxgfx/vmxgfx_execbuf.c in Linux kernel's vmwgfx driver with device file '/dev/dri/renderD128     (or Dxxx)'. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user account on the system to gain privilege, causing     a denial of service(DoS). (CVE-2022-40133)

  - A memory leak flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Stream Control Transmission Protocol. This issue may     occur when a user starts a malicious networking service and someone connects to this service. This could     allow a local user to starve resources, causing a denial of service. (CVE-2023-1074)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux Kernel. The tun/tap sockets have their socket UID hardcoded to 0 due to a     type confusion in their initialization function. While it will be often correct, as tuntap devices require     CAP_NET_ADMIN, it may not always be the case, e.g., a non-root user only having that capability. This     would make tun/tap sockets being incorrectly treated in filtering/routing decisions, possibly bypassing     network filters. (CVE-2023-1076)

  - An issue was discovered in arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c in the Linux kernel before 6.2.8. nVMX on x86_64     lacks consistency checks for CR0 and CR4. (CVE-2023-30456)

  - A flaw possibility of memory leak in the Linux kernel cpu_entry_area mapping of X86 CPU data to memory was     found in the way user can guess location of exception stack(s) or other important data. A local user could     use this flaw to get access to some important data with expected location in memory. (CVE-2023-0597)

  - A memory corruption flaw was found in the Linux kernel's human interface device (HID) subsystem in how a     user inserts a malicious USB device. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their     privileges on the system. (CVE-2023-1073)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux Kernel. The tls_is_tx_ready() incorrectly checks for list emptiness,     potentially accessing a type confused entry to the list_head, leaking the last byte of the confused field     that overlaps with rec->tx_ready. (CVE-2023-1075)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's core dump subsystem. This flaw allows a local user     to crash the system. Only if patch 390031c94211 (coredump: Use the vma snapshot in fill_files_note) not     applied yet, then kernel could be affected. (CVE-2023-1249)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in btsdio_remove in drivers\bluetooth\btsdio.c in the Linux Kernel. In     this flaw, a call to btsdio_remove with an unfinished job, may cause a race problem leading to a UAF on     hdev devices. (CVE-2023-1989)

  - A vulnerability was found in Linux Kernel. It has been classified as problematic. Affected is an unknown     function of the file mm/memory.c of the component Driver Handler. The manipulation leads to use after     free. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue.
    The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-211020. (CVE-2022-3523)

  - A hash collision flaw was found in the IPv6 connection lookup table in the Linux kernel's IPv6     functionality when a user makes a new kind of SYN flood attack. A user located in the local network or     with a high bandwidth connection can increase the CPU usage of the server that accepts IPV6 connections up     to 95%. (CVE-2023-1206)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem). This issue     may allow a malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to cause a 4 byte out-of-bounds read of     XFRMA_MTIMER_THRESH when parsing netlink attributes, leading to potential leakage of sensitive heap data     to userspace. (CVE-2023-3773)

  - A flaw was found in KVM AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) in the Linux kernel. A KVM guest using     SEV-ES or SEV-SNP with multiple vCPUs can trigger a double fetch race condition vulnerability and invoke     the `VMGEXIT` handler recursively. If an attacker manages to call the handler multiple times, they can     trigger a stack overflow and cause a denial of service or potentially guest-to-host escape in kernel     configurations without stack guard pages (`CONFIG_VMAP_STACK`). (CVE-2023-4155)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_fw component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation. When fw_change() is called on an existing filter, the whole tcf_result     struct is always copied into the new instance of the filter. This causes a problem when updating a filter     bound to a class, as tcf_unbind_filter() is always called on the old instance in the success path,     decreasing filter_cnt of the still referenced class and allowing it to be deleted, leading to a use-after-     free. We recommend upgrading past commit 76e42ae831991c828cffa8c37736ebfb831ad5ec. (CVE-2023-4207)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_u32 component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation. When u32_change() is called on an existing filter, the whole     tcf_result struct is always copied into the new instance of the filter. This causes a problem when     updating a filter bound to a class, as tcf_unbind_filter() is always called on the old instance in the     success path, decreasing filter_cnt of the still referenced class and allowing it to be deleted, leading     to a use-after-free. We recommend upgrading past commit 3044b16e7c6fe5d24b1cdbcf1bd0a9d92d1ebd81.
    (CVE-2023-4208)

  - A flaw was found in the exFAT driver of the Linux kernel. The vulnerability exists in the implementation     of the file name reconstruction function, which is responsible for reading file name entries from a     directory index and merging file name parts belonging to one file into a single long file name. Since the     file name characters are copied into a stack variable, a local privileged attacker could use this flaw to     overflow the kernel stack. (CVE-2023-4273)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in xgene_hwmon_remove in drivers/hwmon/xgene-hwmon.c in the Hardware     Monitoring Linux Kernel Driver (xgene-hwmon). This flaw could allow a local attacker to crash the system     due to a race problem. This vulnerability could even lead to a kernel information leak problem.
    (CVE-2023-1855)

  - A NULL pointer dereference issue was found in the gfs2 file system in the Linux kernel. It occurs on     corrupt gfs2 file systems when the evict code tries to reference the journal descriptor structure after it     has been freed and set to NULL. A privileged local user could use this flaw to cause a kernel panic.
    (CVE-2023-3212)

  - The Linux kernel before 6.2.9 has a race condition and resultant use-after-free in     drivers/net/ethernet/qualcomm/emac/emac.c if a physically proximate attacker unplugs an emac based device.
    (CVE-2023-33203)

  - A double-free vulnerability was found in the vmwgfx driver in the Linux kernel. The flaw exists within the     handling of vmw_buffer_object objects. The issue results from the lack of validating the existence of an     object prior to performing further free operations on the object. This flaw allows a local privileged user     to escalate privileges and execute code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2023-33952)

  - Information exposure through microarchitectural state after transient execution in certain vector     execution units for some Intel(R) Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable     information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2022-40982)

  - An out of bounds (OOB) memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel in relay_file_read_start_pos in     kernel/relay.c in the relayfs. This flaw could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak kernel     internal information. (CVE-2023-3268)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_u32 component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation. If tcf_change_indev() fails, u32_set_parms() will immediately return     an error after incrementing or decrementing the reference counter in tcf_bind_filter(). If an attacker can     control the reference counter and set it to zero, they can cause the reference to be freed, leading to a     use-after-free vulnerability. We recommend upgrading past commit 04c55383fa5689357bcdd2c8036725a55ed632bc.
    (CVE-2023-3609)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Ext4 File System in how a user triggers several file     operations simultaneously with the overlay FS usage. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially     escalate their privileges on the system. Only if patch 9a2544037600 (ovl: fix use after free in struct     ovl_aio_req) not applied yet, the kernel could be affected. (CVE-2023-1252)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in nfsd4_ssc_setup_dul in fs/nfsd/nfs4proc.c in the NFS filesystem in the     Linux Kernel. This issue could allow a local attacker to crash the system or it may lead to a kernel     information leak problem. (CVE-2023-1652)

  - A race condition vulnerability was found in the vmwgfx driver in the Linux kernel. The flaw exists within     the handling of GEM objects. The issue results from improper locking when performing operations on an     object. This flaw allows a local privileged user to disclose information in the context of the kernel.
    (CVE-2023-33951)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A use-after-free may be triggered in asus_kbd_backlight_set when     plugging/disconnecting in a malicious USB device, which advertises itself as an Asus device. Similarly to     the previous known CVE-2023-25012, but in asus devices, the work_struct may be scheduled by the LED     controller while the device is disconnecting, triggering a use-after-free on the struct asus_kbd_leds *led     structure. A malicious USB device may exploit the issue to cause memory corruption with controlled data.
    (CVE-2023-1079)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_route component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation. When route4_change() is called on an existing filter, the whole     tcf_result struct is always copied into the new instance of the filter. This causes a problem when     updating a filter bound to a class, as tcf_unbind_filter() is always called on the old instance in the     success path, decreasing filter_cnt of the still referenced class and allowing it to be deleted, leading     to a use-after-free. We recommend upgrading past commit b80b829e9e2c1b3f7aae34855e04d8f6ecaf13c8.
    (CVE-2023-4206)

  - An improper input validation flaw was found in the eBPF subsystem in the Linux kernel. The issue occurs     due to a lack of proper validation of dynamic pointers within user-supplied eBPF programs prior to     executing them. This may allow an attacker with CAP_BPF privileges to escalate privileges and execute     arbitrary code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2023-39191)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem). This issue     may allow a malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to directly dereference a NULL pointer in     xfrm_update_ae_params(), leading to a possible kernel crash and denial of service. (CVE-2023-3772)

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

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2023:3784-1 advisory.

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux Kernel traffic control index filter (tcindex) can be exploited     to achieve local privilege escalation. The tcindex_delete function which does not properly deactivate     filters in case of a perfect hashes while deleting the underlying structure which can later lead to double     freeing the structure. A local attacker user can use this vulnerability to elevate its privileges to root.
    We recommend upgrading past commit 8c710f75256bb3cf05ac7b1672c82b92c43f3d28. (CVE-2023-1829)

  - Linux Kernel nftables Use-After-Free Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability; `nft_chain_lookup_byid()`     failed to check whether a chain was active and CAP_NET_ADMIN is in any user or network namespace     (CVE-2023-31248)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_u32 component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation. If tcf_change_indev() fails, u32_set_parms() will immediately return     an error after incrementing or decrementing the reference counter in tcf_bind_filter(). If an attacker can     control the reference counter and set it to zero, they can cause the reference to be freed, leading to a     use-after-free vulnerability. We recommend upgrading past commit 04c55383fa5689357bcdd2c8036725a55ed632bc.
    (CVE-2023-3609)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_fw component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation. If tcf_change_indev() fails, fw_set_parms() will immediately return an     error after incrementing or decrementing the reference counter in tcf_bind_filter(). If an attacker can     control the reference counter and set it to zero, they can cause the reference to be freed, leading to a     use-after-free vulnerability. We recommend upgrading past commit 0323bce598eea038714f941ce2b22541c46d488f.
    (CVE-2023-3776)

  - A flaw was found in the exFAT driver of the Linux kernel. The vulnerability exists in the implementation     of the file name reconstruction function, which is responsible for reading file name entries from a     directory index and merging file name parts belonging to one file into a single long file name. Since the     file name characters are copied into a stack variable, a local privileged attacker could use this flaw to     overflow the kernel stack. (CVE-2023-4273)

The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6343-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that the IPv6 implementation in the Linux kernel contained a high rate of hash     collisions in connection lookup table. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service     (excessive CPU consumption). (CVE-2023-1206)

    Ross Lagerwall discovered that the Xen netback backend driver in the Linux kernel did not properly handle     certain unusual packets from a paravirtualized network frontend, leading to a buffer overflow. An attacker     in a guest VM could use this to cause a denial of service (host system crash) or possibly execute     arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-34319)

    It was discovered that the bluetooth subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle L2CAP socket     release, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of     service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-40283)

    It was discovered that some network classifier implementations in the Linux kernel contained use-after-     free vulnerabilities. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or     possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-4128)

    Andy Nguyen discovered that the KVM implementation for AMD processors in the Linux kernel with Secure     Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) contained a race condition when accessing the GHCB page. A local attacker     in a SEV guest VM could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (host system crash).
    (CVE-2023-4155)

    It was discovered that the TUN/TAP driver in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize socket data. A     local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-4194)

    Maxim Suhanov discovered that the exFAT file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly     check a file name length, leading to an out- of-bounds write vulnerability. An attacker could use this to     construct a malicious exFAT image that, when mounted and operated on, could cause a denial of service     (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
