The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 23.10 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6651-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that a race condition existed in the ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) subsystem of the     Linux kernel, 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-2023-51780)

    It was discovered that a race condition existed in the AppleTalk networking subsystem of the Linux kernel,     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-2023-51781)

    Zhenghan Wang discovered that the generic ID allocator implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly     check for null bitmap when releasing IDs. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service     (system crash). (CVE-2023-6915)

    Robert Morris discovered that the CIFS network file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not     properly validate certain server commands fields, leading to an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. An     attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly expose sensitive     information. (CVE-2024-0565)

    Jann Horn discovered that the io_uring subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle the release     of certain buffer rings. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or     possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-0582)

    Jann Horn discovered that the TLS subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle spliced messages,     leading to an out-of-bounds write vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of     service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-0646)

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.

According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

    In the Linux kernel before 6.4.5, drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic.c has a use-after-free during a race     condition between a nonblocking atomic commit and a driver unload.(CVE-2023-51043)

    A flaw was found in the Netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel. The issue is in the nft_byteorder_eval()     function, where the code iterates through a loop and writes to the `dst` array. On each iteration, 8 bytes     are written, but `dst` is an array of u32, so each element only has space for 4 bytes. That means every     iteration overwrites part of the previous element corrupting this array of u32. This flaw allows a local     user to cause a denial of service or potentially break NetFilter functionality.(CVE-2024-0607)

    A denial of service vulnerability due to a deadlock was found in sctp_auto_asconf_init in     net/sctp/socket.c in the Linux kernels SCTP subsystem. This flaw allows guests with local user     privileges to trigger a deadlock and potentially crash the system.(CVE-2024-0639)

    A Null pointer dereference problem was found in ida_free in lib/idr.c in the Linux Kernel. This issue may     allow an attacker using this library to cause a denial of service problem due to a missing check at a     function return.(CVE-2023-6915)

    A use-after-free issue was found in igmp_start_timer in net/ipv4/igmp.c in the network sub-component in     the Linux Kernel. This flaw allows a local user to observe a refcnt use-after-free issue when receiving an     igmp query packet, leading to a kernel information leak.(CVE-2024-0584)

    Integer Overflow or Wraparound vulnerability in openEuler kernel on Linux (filesystem modules) allows     Forced Integer Overflow.This issue affects openEuler kernel: from 4.19.90 before 4.19.90-2401.3, from     5.10.0-60.18.0 before 5.10.0-183.0.0.(CVE-2021-33631)

    A denial of service vulnerability was found in tipc_crypto_key_revoke in net/tipc/crypto.c in the Linux     kernels TIPC subsystem. This flaw allows guests with local user privileges to trigger a deadlock and     potentially crash the system.(CVE-2024-0641)

    A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux Kernel due to a race problem in the unix garbage collector's     deletion of SKB races with unix_stream_read_generic() on the socket that the SKB is queued     on.(CVE-2023-6531)

    An out-of-bounds access vulnerability involving netfilter was reported and fixed as: f1082dd31fe4     (netfilter: nf_tables: Reject tables of unsupported family); While creating a new netfilter table, lack of     a safeguard against invalid nf_tables family (pf) values within `nf_tables_newtable` function enables an     attacker to achieve out-of-bounds access.(CVE-2023-6040)

    An out-of-bounds memory read flaw was found in receive_encrypted_standard in fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c in     the SMB Client sub-component in the Linux Kernel. This issue occurs due to integer underflow on the memcpy     length, leading to a denial of service.(CVE-2024-0565)

    An issue was discovered in drivers/input/input.c in the Linux kernel before 5.17.10. An attacker can cause     a denial of service (panic) because input_set_capability mishandles the situation in which an event code     falls outside of a bitmap.(CVE-2022-48619)

    A vulnerability was found in vhost_new_msg in drivers/vhost/vhost.c in the Linux kernel, which does not     properly initialize memory in messages passed between virtual guests and the host operating system in the     vhost/vhost.c:vhost_new_msg() function. This issue can allow local privileged users to read some kernel     memory contents when reading from the /dev/vhost-net device file.(CVE-2024-0340)

    A memory leak problem was found in ctnetlink_create_conntrack in net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_netlink.c in     the Linux Kernel. This issue may allow a local attacker with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to cause a denial of     service (DoS) attack due to a refcount overflow.(CVE-2023-7192)

    A use-after-free flaw was found in the netfilter subsystem of the Linux kernel. If the catchall element is     garbage-collected when the pipapo set is removed, the element can be deactivated twice. This can cause a     use-after-free issue on an NFT_CHAIN object or NFT_OBJECT object, allowing a local unprivileged user with     CAP_NET_ADMIN capability to escalate their privileges on the system.(CVE-2024-0193)

    A race condition was found in the GSM 0710 tty multiplexor in the Linux kernel. This issue occurs when two     threads execute the GSMIOC_SETCONF ioctl on the same tty file descriptor with the gsm line discipline     enabled, and can lead to a use-after-free problem on a struct gsm_dlci while restarting the gsm mux. This     could allow a local unprivileged user to escalate their privileges on the system.(CVE-2023-6546)

    A heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Performance Events system component can be     exploited to achieve local privilege escalation.A perf_event's read_size can overflow, leading to an heap     out-of-bounds increment or write in perf_read_group().We recommend upgrading past commit     382c27f4ed28f803b1f1473ac2d8db0afc795a1b.(CVE-2023-6931)

    A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's ipv4: igmp component can be exploited to achieve     local privilege escalation.A race condition can be exploited to cause a timer be mistakenly registered on     a RCU read locked object which is freed by another thread.We recommend upgrading past commit     e2b706c691905fe78468c361aaabc719d0a496f1.(CVE-2023-6932)

    A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's netfilter: nf_tables component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation.The function nft_pipapo_walk did not skip inactive elements during set     walk which could lead double deactivations of PIPAPO (Pile Packet Policies) elements, leading to use-     after-free.We recommend upgrading past commit 317eb9685095678f2c9f5a8189de698c5354316a.(CVE-2023-6817)

    An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in smbCalcSize in fs/smb/client/netmisc.c in the Linux     Kernel. This issue could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak internal kernel     information.(CVE-2023-6606)

    An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in the NVMe-oF/TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel. This flaw     allows a remote attacker to send a crafted TCP packet, triggering a heap-based buffer overflow that     results in kmalloc data to be printed (and potentially leaked) to the kernel ring buffer     (dmesg).(CVE-2023-6121)
