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

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: arm64: ftrace: fix module PLTs with     mcount Li Huafei reports that mcount-based ftrace with module PLTs was broken by commit: a6253579977e4c6f     (arm64: ftrace: consistently handle PLTs.) When a module PLTs are used and a module is loaded     sufficiently far away from the kernel, we'll create PLTs for any branches which are out-of-range. These     are separate from the special ftrace trampoline PLTs, which the module PLT code doesn't directly     manipulate. When mcount is in use this is a problem, as each mcount callsite in a module will be     initialized to point to a module PLT, but since commit a6253579977e4c6f ftrace_make_nop() will assume that     the callsite has been initialized to point to the special ftrace trampoline PLT, and     ftrace_find_callable_addr() rejects other cases. This means that when ftrace tries to initialize a     callsite via ftrace_make_nop(), the call to ftrace_find_callable_addr() will find that the `_mcount` stub     is out-of-range and is not handled by the ftrace PLT, resulting in a splat: | ftrace_test: loading out-of-     tree module taints kernel. | ftrace: no module PLT for _mcount | ------------[ ftrace bug ]------------ |     ftrace failed to modify | [<ffff800029180014>] 0xffff800029180014 | actual: 44:00:00:94 | Initializing     ftrace call sites | ftrace record flags: 2000000 | (0) | expected tramp: ffff80000802eb3c | ------------[     cut here ]------------ | WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 157 at kernel/trace/ftrace.c:2120 ftrace_bug+0x94/0x270 |     Modules linked in: | CPU: 3 PID: 157 Comm: insmod Tainted: G O 6.0.0-rc6-00151-gcd722513a189-dirty #22 |     Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT) | pstate: 60000005 (nZCv daif -PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--) |     pc : ftrace_bug+0x94/0x270 | lr : ftrace_bug+0x21c/0x270 | sp : ffff80000b2bbaf0 | x29: ffff80000b2bbaf0     x28: 0000000000000000 x27: ffff0000c4d38000 | x26: 0000000000000001 x25: ffff800009d7e000 x24:

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product 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 5.15.75-48.135. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.15-2025-090 advisory.

    A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, has been found in Linux Kernel. This issue affects     the function nilfs_attach_log_writer of the file fs/nilfs2/segment.c of the component BPF. The     manipulation leads to memory leak. The attack may be initiated remotely. It is recommended to apply a     patch to fix this issue. The identifier VDB-211961 was assigned to this vulnerability. (CVE-2022-3646)

    drivers/scsi/stex.c in the Linux kernel through 5.19.9 allows local users to obtain sensitive information     from kernel memory because stex_queuecommand_lck lacks a memset for the PASSTHRU_CMD case.
    (CVE-2022-40768)

    The Linux kernel NFSD implementation prior to versions 5.19.17 and 6.0.2 are vulnerable to buffer     overflow. NFSD tracks the number of pages held by each NFSD thread by combining the receive and send     buffers of a remote procedure call (RPC) into a single array of pages. A client can force the send buffer     to shrink by sending an RPC message over TCP with garbage data added at the end of the message. The RPC     message with garbage data is still correctly formed according to the specification and is passed forward     to handlers. Vulnerable code in NFSD is not expecting the oversized request and writes beyond the     allocated buffer space. CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H (CVE-2022-43945)
