The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:1676-1 advisory.

  - A use after free in the Linux kernel infiniband hfi1 driver in versions prior to 5.10-rc6 was found in the     way user calls Ioctl after open dev file and fork. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system.
    (CVE-2020-27835)

  - In dma_buf_release of dma-buf.c, there is a possible memory corruption due to a use after free. This could     lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is     not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID: A-155756045References:
    Upstream kernel (CVE-2021-0707)

  - There is a flaw reported in the Linux kernel in versions before 5.9 in     drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_sgdma.c in nouveau_sgdma_create_ttm in Nouveau DRM subsystem. The issue     results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the     object. An attacker with a local account with a root privilege, can leverage this vulnerability to     escalate privileges and execute code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2021-20292)

  - A race condition accessing file object in the Linux kernel OverlayFS subsystem was found in the way users     do rename in specific way with OverlayFS. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system.
    (CVE-2021-20321)

  - net/nfc/llcp_sock.c in the Linux kernel before 5.12.10 allows local unprivileged users to cause a denial     of service (NULL pointer dereference and BUG) by making a getsockname call after a certain type of failure     of a bind call. (CVE-2021-38208)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in cgroup1_parse_param in kernel/cgroup/cgroup-v1.c in the Linux kernel's     cgroup v1 parser. A local attacker with a user privilege could cause a privilege escalation by exploiting     the fsconfig syscall parameter leading to a container breakout and a denial of service on the system.
    (CVE-2021-4154)

  - An information leak flaw was found in NFS over RDMA in the net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/rpc_rdma.c in the Linux     Kernel. This flaw allows an attacker with normal user privileges to leak kernel information.
    (CVE-2022-0812)

  - A flaw was found in KVM. When updating a guest's page table entry, vm_pgoff was improperly used as the     offset to get the page's pfn. As vaddr and vm_pgoff are controllable by user-mode processes, this flaw     allows unprivileged local users on the host to write outside the userspace region and potentially corrupt     the kernel, resulting in a denial of service condition. (CVE-2022-1158)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in drm_lease_held in drivers/gpu/drm/drm_lease.c in the Linux     kernel due to a race problem. This flaw allows a local user privilege attacker to cause a denial of     service (DoS) or a kernel information leak. (CVE-2022-1280)

  - A vulnerability was found in the pfkey_register function in net/key/af_key.c in the Linux kernel. This     flaw allows a local, unprivileged user to gain access to kernel memory, leading to a system crash or a     leak of internal kernel information. (CVE-2022-1353)

  - The root cause of this vulnerability is that the ioctl$DRM_IOCTL_MODE_DESTROY_DUMB can decrease refcount     of *drm_vgem_gem_object *(created in *vgem_gem_dumb_create*) concurrently, and *vgem_gem_dumb_create *will     access the freed drm_vgem_gem_object. (CVE-2022-1419)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel's X.25 set of standardized network protocols     functionality in the way a user terminates their session using a simulated Ethernet card and continued     usage of this connection. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system. (CVE-2022-1516)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.17.1, a refcount leak bug was found in net/llc/af_llc.c. (CVE-2022-28356)

  - The SUNRPC subsystem in the Linux kernel through 5.17.2 can call xs_xprt_free before ensuring that sockets     are in the intended state. (CVE-2022-28893)

  - drivers/infiniband/ulp/rtrs/rtrs-clt.c in the Linux kernel before 5.16.12 has a double free related to     rtrs_clt_dev_release. (CVE-2022-29156)

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 5.4.58-27.104. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.4-2022-014 advisory.

    A flaw was found in the AMD Cryptographic Co-processor driver in the Linux kernel. An attacker, able to     send invalid SHA type commands, could cause the system to crash. The highest threat from this     vulnerability is to system availability. (CVE-2019-18808)

    A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. The CX23888 Integrated Consumer Infrared Controller probe code     handles resource cleanup low memory conditions. A local attacker able to induce low memory conditions     could use this flaw to crash the system. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system     availability. (CVE-2019-19054)

    A flaw was found in the ZRAM kernel module, where a user with a local account and the ability to read the     /sys/class/zram-control/hot_add file can create ZRAM device nodes in the /dev/ directory. This read     allocates kernel memory and is not accounted for a user that triggers the creation of that ZRAM device.
    With this vulnerability, continually reading the device may consume a large amount of system memory and     cause the Out-of-Memory (OOM) killer to activate and terminate random userspace processes, possibly making     the system inoperable. (CVE-2020-10781)

    A flaw was found in the implementation of the Linux kernel's GSS mechanism registration functionality.
    During this period, memory allocation was not freed when the module was unloaded, leading to a memory     leak. This flaw allows an attacker with the ability to repeat loads and unloads, to cause the system to     run out of free memory and crash eventually. (CVE-2020-12656)

    In the Linux kernel 4.4 through 5.7.6, usbtest_disconnect in drivers/usb/misc/usbtest.c has a memory leak,     aka CID-28ebeb8db770. (CVE-2020-15393)

    A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. The generation of the device ID from the network RNG internal state     is predictable. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality. (CVE-2020-16166)

    In dma_buf_release of dma-buf.c, there is a possible memory corruption due to a use after free. This could     lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is     not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID: A-155756045References:
