  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: veth: Fix use after free in     XDP_REDIRECT Commit 718a18a0c8a6 (veth: Rework veth_xdp_rcv_skb in order to accept non-linear skb)     introduced a bug where it tried to use pskb_expand_head() if the headroom was less than     XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM. This however uses kmalloc to expand the head, which will later allow consume_skb() to     free the skb while is it still in use by AF_XDP. Previously if the headroom was less than     XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM we continued on to allocate a new skb from pages so this restores that behavior. BUG:

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-148 advisory.

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

    KVM: VMX: Do _all_ initialization before exposing /dev/kvm to userspace (CVE-2022-49932)

    A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux Kernel Performance Events system can be exploited to achieve     local privilege escalation.

    The perf_group_detach function did not check the event's siblings' attach_state before calling     add_event_to_groups(), but remove_on_exec made it possible to call list_del_event() on before detaching     from their group, making it possible to use a dangling pointer causing a use-after-free vulnerability.

    We recommend upgrading past commit fd0815f632c24878e325821943edccc7fde947a2. (CVE-2023-2235)

    do_tls_getsockopt in net/tls/tls_main.c in the Linux kernel through 6.2.6 lacks a lock_sock call, leading     to a race condition (with a resultant use-after-free or NULL pointer dereference). (CVE-2023-28466)

    An issue was discovered in arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c in the Linux kernel before 6.2.8. nVMX on x86_64     lacks consistency checks for CR0 and CR4. (CVE-2023-30456)
