The version of qemu installed on the remote Azure Linux 3.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2021-4158 advisory.

  - A NULL pointer dereference issue was found in the ACPI code of QEMU. A malicious, privileged user within     the guest could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on the host, resulting in a denial of service     condition. (CVE-2021-4158)

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

The version of AHV installed on the remote host is prior to 10.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AHV-10.0 advisory.

  - A crafted NTFS image can trigger a heap-based buffer overflow, caused by an unsanitized attribute in     ntfs_get_attribute_value, in NTFS-3G < 2021.8.22. (CVE-2021-39263)

  - An issue was discovered in libexpat before 2.6.3. nextScaffoldPart in xmlparse.c can have an integer     overflow for m_groupSize on 32-bit platforms (where UINT_MAX equals SIZE_MAX). (CVE-2024-45492)

  - Buffer Overflow vulnerability found in SQLite3 v.3.27.1 and before allows a local attacker to cause a     denial of service via a crafted script. (CVE-2020-24736)

  - Flatpak is a Linux application sandboxing and distribution framework. Prior to versions 1.14.0 and     1.15.10, a malicious or compromised Flatpak app using persistent directories could access and write files     outside of what it would otherwise have access to, which is an attack on integrity and confidentiality.
    When `persistent=subdir` is used in the application permissions (represented as `--persist=subdir` in the     command-line interface), that means that an application which otherwise doesn't have access to the real     user home directory will see an empty home directory with a writeable subdirectory `subdir`. Behind the     scenes, this directory is actually a bind mount and the data is stored in the per-application directory as     `~/.var/app/$APPID/subdir`. This allows existing apps that are not aware of the per-application directory     to still work as intended without general home directory access. However, the application does have write     access to the application directory `~/.var/app/$APPID` where this directory is stored. If the source     directory for the `persistent`/`--persist` option is replaced by a symlink, then the next time the     application is started, the bind mount will follow the symlink and mount whatever it points to into the     sandbox. Partial protection against this vulnerability can be provided by patching Flatpak using the     patches in commits ceec2ffc and 98f79773. However, this leaves a race condition that could be exploited by     two instances of a malicious app running in parallel. Closing the race condition requires updating or     patching the version of bubblewrap that is used by Flatpak to add the new `--bind-fd` option using the     patch and then patching Flatpak to use it. If Flatpak has been configured at build-time with     `-Dsystem_bubblewrap=bwrap` (1.15.x) or `--with-system-bubblewrap=bwrap` (1.14.x or older), or a similar     option, then the version of bubblewrap that needs to be patched is a system copy that is distributed     separately, typically `/usr/bin/bwrap`. This configuration is the one that is typically used in Linux     distributions. If Flatpak has been configured at build-time with `-Dsystem_bubblewrap=` (1.15.x) or with     `--without-system-bubblewrap` (1.14.x or older), then it is the bundled version of bubblewrap that is     included with Flatpak that must be patched. This is typically installed as `/usr/libexec/flatpak-bwrap`.
    This configuration is the default when building from source code. For the 1.14.x stable branch, these     changes are included in Flatpak 1.14.10. The bundled version of bubblewrap included in this release has     been updated to 0.6.3. For the 1.15.x development branch, these changes are included in Flatpak 1.15.10.
    The bundled version of bubblewrap in this release is a Meson wrap subproject, which has been updated to     0.10.0. The 1.12.x and 1.10.x branches will not be updated for this vulnerability. Long-term support OS     distributions should backport the individual changes into their versions of Flatpak and bubblewrap, or     update to newer versions if their stability policy allows it. As a workaround, avoid using applications     using the `persistent` (`--persist`) permission. (CVE-2024-42472)

  - Certain DNSSEC aspects of the DNS protocol (in RFC 4033, 4034, 4035, 6840, and related RFCs) allow remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via one or more DNSSEC responses, aka the     KeyTrap issue. One of the concerns is that, when there is a zone with many DNSKEY and RRSIG records, the     protocol specification implies that an algorithm must evaluate all combinations of DNSKEY and RRSIG     records. (CVE-2023-50387)

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