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

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 6.0.10. In drivers/media/dvb-core/dvb_ca_en50221.c, a     use-after-free can occur is there is a disconnect after an open, because of the lack of a wait_event.
    (CVE-2022-45919)

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

The remote Rocky Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RLSA-2023:7548 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 6.0.9. drivers/media/dvb-core/dvbdev.c has a use-     after-free, related to dvb_register_device dynamically allocating fops. (CVE-2022-45884)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 6.0.9. drivers/media/dvb-core/dvb_net.c has a     .disconnect versus dvb_device_open race condition that leads to a use-after-free. (CVE-2022-45886)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 6.0.10. In drivers/media/dvb-core/dvb_ca_en50221.c, a     use-after-free can occur is there is a disconnect after an open, because of the lack of a wait_event.
    (CVE-2022-45919)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in smb2_is_status_io_timeout() in CIFS in the Linux Kernel. After CIFS     transfers response data to a system call, there are still local variable points to the memory region, and     if the system call frees it faster than CIFS uses it, CIFS will access a free memory region, leading to a     denial of service. (CVE-2023-1192)

  - Incorrect verifier pruning in BPF in Linux Kernel >=5.4 leads to unsafe code paths being incorrectly     marked as safe, resulting in arbitrary read/write in kernel memory, lateral privilege escalation, and     container escape. (CVE-2023-2163)

  - An out-of-bounds memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel's TUN/TAP device driver functionality in     how a user generates a malicious (too big) networking packet when napi frags is enabled. This flaw allows     a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2023-3812)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in drivers/nvme/target/tcp.c` in `nvmet_tcp_free_crypto` due to a     logical bug in the NVMe-oF/TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel. This issue may allow a malicious local     privileged user to cause a use-after-free and double-free problem, which may permit remote code execution     or lead to local privilege escalation problem. (CVE-2023-5178)

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