Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

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

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.10.213-201.855. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.10-2024-052 advisory.

    A flaw was found in the smb client in the Linux kernel. A potential out-of-bounds error was seen in the     smb2_parse_contexts() function. Validate offsets and lengths before dereferencing create contexts in     smb2_parse_contexts(). (CVE-2023-52434)

    A null pointer dereference flaw was found in the hugetlbfs_fill_super function in the Linux kernel     hugetlbfs (HugeTLB pages) functionality. This issue may allow a local user to crash the system or     potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2024-0841)

    A vulnerability was discovered in the Linux kernel's IPv4 networking stack. Under certain conditions,     MPTCP and NetLabel can be configured in a way that triggers a double free memory error in     net/ipv4/af_inet.c:inet_sock_destruct(). This may lead to a system crash, denial of service, or potential     arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2024-1627)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    ext4: regenerate buddy after block freeing failed if under fc replay

    This mostly reverts commit 6bd97bf273bd (ext4: remove redundantmb_regenerate_buddy()) and reintroduces     mb_regenerate_buddy(). Based oncode in mb_free_blocks(), fast commit replay can end up marking as     freeblocks that are already marked as such. This causes corruption of thebuddy bitmap so we need to     regenerate it in that case. (CVE-2024-26601)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    xhci: handle isoc Babble and Buffer Overrun events properly (CVE-2024-26659)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    fs,hugetlb: fix NULL pointer dereference in hugetlbs_fill_super (CVE-2024-26688)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    ipv6: sr: fix possible use-after-free and null-ptr-deref (CVE-2024-26735)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: afs: Increase buffer size in     afs_update_volume_status() The max length of volume->vid value is 20 characters. So increase idbuf[] size     up to 24 to avoid overflow. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE. [DH:
    Actually, it's 20 + NUL, so increase it to 24 and use snprintf()] (CVE-2024-26736)

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6820-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition,     leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or     possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-6270)

    It was discovered that the Atheros 802.11ac wireless driver did not properly validate certain data     structures, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial     of service. (CVE-2023-7042)

    It was discovered that the HugeTLB file system component of the Linux Kernel contained a NULL pointer     dereference vulnerability. A privileged attacker could possibly use this to to cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2024-0841)

    It was discovered that the Intel Data Streaming and Intel Analytics Accelerator drivers in the Linux     kernel allowed direct access to the devices for unprivileged users and virtual machines. A local attacker     could use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2024-21823)

    Yuxuan Hu discovered that the Bluetooth RFCOMM protocol driver in the Linux Kernel contained a race     condition, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of     service (system crash). (CVE-2024-22099)

    It was discovered that the MediaTek SoC Gigabit Ethernet driver in the Linux kernel contained a race     condition when stopping the device. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service     (device unavailability). (CVE-2024-27432)
