The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Mark bpf prog stack with     kmsan_unposion_memory in interpreter mode syzbot reported uninit memory usages during     map_{lookup,delete}_elem. ========== BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in __dev_map_lookup_elem     kernel/bpf/devmap.c:441 [inline] BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in dev_map_lookup_elem+0xf3/0x170     kernel/bpf/devmap.c:796 __dev_map_lookup_elem kernel/bpf/devmap.c:441 [inline]     dev_map_lookup_elem+0xf3/0x170 kernel/bpf/devmap.c:796 ____bpf_map_lookup_elem kernel/bpf/helpers.c:42     [inline] bpf_map_lookup_elem+0x5c/0x80 kernel/bpf/helpers.c:38 ___bpf_prog_run+0x13fe/0xe0f0     kernel/bpf/core.c:1997 __bpf_prog_run256+0xb5/0xe0 kernel/bpf/core.c:2237 ========== The reproducer should     be in the interpreter mode. The C reproducer is trying to run the following bpf prog: 0: (18) r0 = 0x0 2:
    (18) r1 = map[id:49] 4: (b7) r8 = 16777216 5: (7b) *(u64 *)(r10 -8) = r8 6: (bf) r2 = r10 7: (07) r2 +=
    -229 ^^^^^^^^^^ 8: (b7) r3 = 8 9: (b7) r4 = 0 10: (85) call dev_map_lookup_elem#1543472 11: (95) exit It     is due to the void *key (r2) passed to the helper. bpf allows uninit stack memory access for bpf prog     with the right privileges. This patch uses kmsan_unpoison_memory() to mark the stack as initialized. This     should address different syzbot reports on the uninit void *key argument during     map_{lookup,delete}_elem. (CVE-2024-42063)

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

The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-7089-7 advisory.

    Chenyuan Yang discovered that the USB Gadget subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly check for the     device to be enabled before writing. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of     service. (CVE-2024-25741)

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.

An update of the linux package has been released.
