According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The acpi_smbus_hc_add function in drivers/acpi/sbshc.c     in the Linux kernel through 4.14.15 allows local users     to obtain sensitive address information by reading     dmesg data from an SBS HC printk call.(CVE-2018-5750i1/4%0

  - An issue was discovered in the btrfs filesystem code in     the Linux kernel. A use-after-free is possible in     try_merge_free_space() when mounting a crafted btrfs     image due to a lack of chunk type flag checks in     btrfs_check_chunk_valid() in the fs/btrfs/volumes.c     function. This could lead to a denial of service or     other unspecified impact.(CVE-2018-14611i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel visor     driver handles certain invalid USB device descriptors.
    The driver assumes that the device always has at least     one bulk OUT endpoint. By using a specially crafted USB     device (without a bulk OUT endpoint), an unprivileged     user with physical access could trigger a kernel     NULL-pointer dereference and cause a system panic     (denial of service).(CVE-2015-7566i1/4%0

  - It was found that the RFC 5961 challenge ACK rate     limiting as implemented in the Linux kernel's     networking subsystem allowed an off-path attacker to     leak certain information about a given connection by     creating congestion on the global challenge ACK rate     limit counter and then measuring the changes by probing     packets. An off-path attacker could use this flaw to     either terminate TCP connection and/or inject payload     into non-secured TCP connection between two endpoints     on the network.(CVE-2016-5696i1/4%0

  - It was found that the Bluebooth Network Encapsulation     Protocol (BNEP) implementation did not validate the     type of second socket passed to the BNEPCONNADD     ioctl(), which could lead to memory corruption. A local     user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can use this for     denial of service (crash or data corruption) or     possibly for privilege escalation. Due to the nature of     the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled     out, although we feel it is unlikely.(CVE-2017-15868i1/4%0

  - A vulnerability was found in the key management     subsystem of the Linux kernel. An update on an     uninstantiated key could cause a kernel panic, leading     to denial of service (DoS).(CVE-2017-15299i1/4%0

  - arch/mips/include/asm/thread_info.h in the Linux kernel     before 3.14.8 on the MIPS platform does not configure
    _TIF_SECCOMP checks on the fast system-call path, which     allows local users to bypass intended PR_SET_SECCOMP     restrictions by executing a crafted application without     invoking a trace or audit subsystem.(CVE-2014-4157i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ext4 filesystem     code. A stack-out-of-bounds write in     ext4_update_inline_data() is possible when mounting and     writing to a crafted ext4 image. An attacker could use     this to cause a system crash and a denial of     service.(CVE-2018-10880i1/4%0

  - The aac_send_raw_srb function in     drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c in the Linux kernel     through 3.12.1 does not properly validate a certain     size value, which allows local users to cause a denial     of service (invalid pointer dereference) or possibly     have unspecified other impact via an     FSACTL_SEND_RAW_SRB ioctl call that triggers a crafted     SRB command.(CVE-2013-6380i1/4%0

  - Linux kernel built with the KVM visualization support     (CONFIG_KVM), with nested visualization(nVMX) feature     enabled(nested=1), is vulnerable to an uncaught     exception issue. It could occur if an L2 guest was to     throw an exception which is not handled by an L1     guest.(CVE-2016-9588i1/4%0

  - A flaw was found in the alarm_timer_nsleep() function     in kernel/time/alarmtimer.c in the Linux kernel. The     ktime_add_safe() function is not used and an integer     overflow can happen causing an alarm not to fire if     using a large relative timeout.(CVE-2018-13053i1/4%0

  - net/llc/sysctl_net_llc.c in the Linux kernel before     3.19 uses an incorrect data type in a sysctl table,     which allows local users to obtain potentially     sensitive information from kernel memory or possibly     have unspecified other impact by accessing a sysctl     entry.(CVE-2015-2041i1/4%0

  - Incorrect error handling in the set_mempolicy() and     mbind() compat syscalls in 'mm/mempolicy.c' in the     Linux kernel allows local users to obtain sensitive     information from uninitialized stack data by triggering     failure of a certain bitmap operation.(CVE-2017-7616i1/4%0

  - The snd_msnd_interrupt function in     sound/isa/msnd/msnd_pinnacle.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.11.7 allows local users to cause a denial of     service (over-boundary access) or possibly have     unspecified other impact by changing the value of a     message queue head pointer between two kernel reads of     that value, aka a 'double fetch'     vulnerability.(CVE-2017-9984i1/4%0

  - An integer overflow was discovered in the     qla2x00_sysfs_write_optrom_ctl function in     drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_attr.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.12.10. This flaw allows local users to cause     a denial of service (memory corruption and system     crash) by leveraging root access.(CVE-2017-14051i1/4%0

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the way the Linux     kernel's Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA)     implementation handled user controls. A local,     privileged user could use this flaw to crash the     system.(CVE-2014-4654i1/4%0

  - An information leak flaw was found in the way the Linux     kernel's Virtual Dynamic Shared Object (vDSO)     implementation performed address randomization. A     local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to leak     kernel memory addresses to user-space.(CVE-2014-9585i1/4%0

  - The usbhid_parse function in     drivers/hid/usbhid/hid-core.c in the Linux kernel,     before 4.13.8, allows local users to cause a denial of     service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) or     possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted     USB device.(CVE-2017-16533i1/4%0

  - Linux Kernel version 3.18 to 4.16 incorrectly handles an SG_IO ioctl on /dev/sg0 with     dxfer_direction=SG_DXFER_FROM_DEV and an empty 6-byte cmdp. This may lead to copying up to 1000 kernel     heap pages to the userspace. This has been fixed upstream in     https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/a45b599ad808c3c982fdcdc12b0b8611c2f92824 already. The problem has     limited scope, as users don't usually have permissions to access SCSI devices. On the other hand, e.g. the     Nero user manual suggests doing `chmod o+r+w /dev/sg*` to make the devices accessible. NOTE: third parties     dispute the relevance of this report, noting that the requirement for an attacker to have both the     CAP_SYS_ADMIN and CAP_SYS_RAWIO capabilities makes it virtually impossible to exploit. (CVE-2018-1000204)

  - drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_scsi_host.c in the Linux kernel before 4.16 allows local users to cause a denial     of service (ata qc leak) by triggering certain failure conditions. NOTE: a third party disputes the     relevance of this report because the failure can only occur for physically proximate attackers who unplug     SAS Host Bus Adapter cables (CVE-2018-10021)

  - The kernel_wait4 function in kernel/exit.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13, when an unspecified     architecture and compiler is used, might allow local users to cause a denial of service by triggering an     attempted use of the -INT_MIN value. (CVE-2018-10087)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ext4 filesystem. A local user can cause an out-of-bound access in     ext4_get_group_info function, a denial of service, and a system crash by mounting and operating on a     crafted ext4 filesystem image. (CVE-2018-10881)

  - The ext4_iget function in fs/ext4/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 4.15.15 mishandles the case of a     root directory with a zero i_links_count, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service     (ext4_process_freed_data NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) via a crafted ext4 image. (CVE-2018-1092)

  - The ext4_valid_block_bitmap function in fs/ext4/balloc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.15.15 allows     attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) via a crafted ext4 image     because balloc.c and ialloc.c do not validate bitmap block numbers. (CVE-2018-1093)

  - The cdrom_ioctl_media_changed function in drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c in the Linux kernel before 4.16.6 allows     local attackers to use a incorrect bounds check in the CDROM driver CDROM_MEDIA_CHANGED ioctl to read out     kernel memory. (CVE-2018-10940)

  - In the ea_get function in fs/jfs/xattr.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.1, a memory corruption bug in     JFS can be triggered by calling setxattr twice with two different extended attribute names on the same     file. This vulnerability can be triggered by an unprivileged user with the ability to create files and     execute programs. A kmalloc call is incorrect, leading to slab-out-of-bounds in jfs_xattr.
    (CVE-2018-12233)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_attr_leaf.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. An OOPS may     occur for a corrupted xfs image after xfs_da_shrink_inode() is called with a NULL bp. (CVE-2018-13094)

  - The inode_init_owner function in fs/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 3.16 allows local users to create     files with an unintended group ownership, in a scenario where a directory is SGID to a certain group and     is writable by a user who is not a member of that group. Here, the non-member can trigger creation of a     plain file whose group ownership is that group. The intended behavior was that the non-member can trigger     creation of a directory (but not a plain file) whose group ownership is that group. The non-member can     escalate privileges by making the plain file executable and SGID. (CVE-2018-13405)

  - An integer overflow in the uvesafb_setcmap function in drivers/video/fbdev/uvesafb.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.17.4 could result in local attackers being able to crash the kernel or potentially elevate     privileges because kmalloc_array is not used. (CVE-2018-13406)

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

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3469-1 advisory.

  - The make_response function in drivers/block/xen-blkback/blkback.c in the Linux kernel before 4.11.8 allows     guest OS users to obtain sensitive information from host OS (or other guest OS) kernel memory by     leveraging the copying of uninitialized padding fields in Xen block-interface response structures, aka     XSA-216. (CVE-2017-10911)

  - A security flaw was discovered in the nl80211_set_rekey_data() function in net/wireless/nl80211.c in the     Linux kernel through 4.13.3. This function does not check whether the required attributes are present in a     Netlink request. This request can be issued by a user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability and may result in     a NULL pointer dereference and system crash. (CVE-2017-12153)

  - The prepare_vmcs02 function in arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.3 does not ensure that     the CR8-load exiting and CR8-store exiting L0 vmcs02 controls exist in cases where L1 omits the use     TPR shadow vmcs12 control, which allows KVM L2 guest OS users to obtain read and write access to the     hardware CR8 register. (CVE-2017-12154)

  - The keyctl_read_key function in security/keys/keyctl.c in the Key Management subcomponent in the Linux     kernel before 4.13.5 does not properly consider that a key may be possessed but negatively instantiated,     which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS and system crash) via a crafted KEYCTL_READ     operation. (CVE-2017-12192)

  - An integer overflow in the qla2x00_sysfs_write_optrom_ctl function in drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_attr.c in     the Linux kernel through 4.12.10 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and     system crash) by leveraging root access. (CVE-2017-14051)

  - The atyfb_ioctl function in drivers/video/fbdev/aty/atyfb_base.c in the Linux kernel through 4.12.10 does     not initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from     kernel stack memory by reading locations associated with padding bytes. (CVE-2017-14156)

  - The XFS_IS_REALTIME_INODE macro in fs/xfs/xfs_linux.h in the Linux kernel before 4.13.2 does not verify     that a filesystem has a realtime device, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL     pointer dereference and OOPS) via vectors related to setting an RHINHERIT flag on a directory.
    (CVE-2017-14340)

  - The iscsi_if_rx function in drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.2 allows     local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by leveraging incorrect length validation.
    (CVE-2017-14489)

  - The sg_ioctl function in drivers/scsi/sg.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.4 allows local users to obtain     sensitive information from uninitialized kernel heap-memory locations via an SG_GET_REQUEST_TABLE ioctl     call for /dev/sg0. (CVE-2017-14991)

  - The x86/fpu (Floating Point Unit) subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.13.5, when a processor supports     the xsave feature but not the xsaves feature, does not correctly handle attempts to set reserved bits in     the xstate header via the ptrace() or rt_sigreturn() system call, allowing local users to read the FPU     registers of other processes on the system, related to arch/x86/kernel/fpu/regset.c and     arch/x86/kernel/fpu/signal.c. (CVE-2017-15537)

  - The snd_msnd_interrupt function in sound/isa/msnd/msnd_pinnacle.c in the Linux kernel through 4.11.7     allows local users to cause a denial of service (over-boundary access) or possibly have unspecified other     impact by changing the value of a message queue head pointer between two kernel reads of that value, aka a     double fetch vulnerability. (CVE-2017-9984)

  - The snd_msndmidi_input_read function in sound/isa/msnd/msnd_midi.c in the Linux kernel through 4.11.7     allows local users to cause a denial of service (over-boundary access) or possibly have unspecified other     impact by changing the value of a message queue head pointer between two kernel reads of that value, aka a     double fetch vulnerability. (CVE-2017-9985)

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

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3469-2 advisory.

  - The make_response function in drivers/block/xen-blkback/blkback.c in the Linux kernel before 4.11.8 allows     guest OS users to obtain sensitive information from host OS (or other guest OS) kernel memory by     leveraging the copying of uninitialized padding fields in Xen block-interface response structures, aka     XSA-216. (CVE-2017-10911)

  - A security flaw was discovered in the nl80211_set_rekey_data() function in net/wireless/nl80211.c in the     Linux kernel through 4.13.3. This function does not check whether the required attributes are present in a     Netlink request. This request can be issued by a user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability and may result in     a NULL pointer dereference and system crash. (CVE-2017-12153)

  - The prepare_vmcs02 function in arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.3 does not ensure that     the CR8-load exiting and CR8-store exiting L0 vmcs02 controls exist in cases where L1 omits the use     TPR shadow vmcs12 control, which allows KVM L2 guest OS users to obtain read and write access to the     hardware CR8 register. (CVE-2017-12154)

  - The keyctl_read_key function in security/keys/keyctl.c in the Key Management subcomponent in the Linux     kernel before 4.13.5 does not properly consider that a key may be possessed but negatively instantiated,     which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS and system crash) via a crafted KEYCTL_READ     operation.
