The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:0768-1 advisory.

    The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP1 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.


    Transient execution side-channel attacks attacking the Branch History Buffer (BHB),     named 'Branch Target Injection' and 'Intra-Mode Branch History Injection' are now mitigated.

    The following security bugs were fixed:

    - CVE-2022-0001: Fixed Branch History Injection vulnerability (bsc#1191580).
    - CVE-2022-0002: Fixed Intra-Mode Branch Target Injection vulnerability (bsc#1191580).
    - CVE-2022-0847: Fixed a vulnerability were a local attackers could overwrite data in arbitrary (read-     only) files (bsc#1196584).
    - CVE-2022-0617: Fixed a null pointer dereference in UDF file system functionality. A local user could     crash the system by triggering udf_file_write_iter() via a malicious UDF image. (bsc#1196079)
    - CVE-2022-0644: Fixed a denial of service by a local user. A assertion failure could be triggered in     kernel_read_file_from_fd() (bsc#1196155).
    - CVE-2021-44879: In gc_data_segment() in fs/f2fs/gc.c, special files were not considered, which lead to a     move_data_page NULL pointer dereference (bsc#1195987).
    - CVE-2022-24959: Fixed a memory leak in yam_siocdevprivate() in drivers/net/hamradio/yam.c (bsc#1195897).
    - CVE-2022-0487: A use-after-free vulnerability was found in rtsx_usb_ms_drv_remove() in     drivers/memstick/host/rtsx_usb_ms.c (bsc#1194516).
    - CVE-2022-0492: Fixed a privilege escalation related to cgroups v1 release_agent feature, which allowed     bypassing namespace isolation unexpectedly (bsc#1195543).
    - CVE-2022-24448: Fixed an issue in fs/nfs/dir.c. If an application sets the O_DIRECTORY flag, and tries     to open a regular file, nfs_atomic_open() performs a regular lookup. If a regular file is found, ENOTDIR     should have occured, but the server instead returned uninitialized data in the file descriptor     (bsc#1195612).

The version of Docker Desktop for Windows is prior to 4.6.0. It is therefore affected by CVE-2022-0847, AKA 'DirtyPipe', an issue that could enable attackers to modify files in container images on the host, from inside a container. 

A flaw was found in the way the 'flags' member of the new pipe buffer structure was lacking proper initialization in copy_page_to_iter_pipe and push_pipe functions in the Linux kernel and could thus contain stale values. An unprivileged local user could use this flaw to write to pages in the page cache backed by read only files and as such escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-0847)
