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

  - nilfs2: fix sysfs interface lifetime The current nilfs2 sysfs support has issues with the timing of     creation and deletion of sysfs entries, potentially leading to null pointer dereferences, use-after-free,     and lockdep warnings. Some of the sysfs attributes for nilfs2 per-filesystem instance refer to metadata     file cpfile, sufile, or dat, but nilfs_sysfs_create_device_group that creates those attributes is     executed before the inodes for these metadata files are loaded, and nilfs_sysfs_delete_device_group which     deletes these sysfs entries is called after releasing their metadata file inodes. Therefore, access to     some of these sysfs attributes may occur outside of the lifetime of these metadata files, resulting in     inode NULL pointer dereferences or use-after-free. In addition, the call to     nilfs_sysfs_create_device_group() is made during the locking period of the semaphore ns_sem of nilfs     object, so the shrinker call caused by the memory allocation for the sysfs entries, may derive lock     dependencies ns_sem -> (shrinker) -> locks acquired in nilfs_evict_inode(). Since nilfs2 may acquire     ns_sem deep in the call stack holding other locks via its error handler __nilfs_error(), this causes     lockdep to report circular locking. This is a false positive and no circular locking actually occurs as no     inodes exist yet when nilfs_sysfs_create_device_group() is called. Fortunately, the lockdep warnings can     be resolved by simply moving the call to nilfs_sysfs_create_device_group() out of ns_sem. This fixes     these sysfs issues by revising where the device's sysfs interface is created/deleted and keeping its     lifetime within the lifetime of the metadata files above. (CVE-2023-53440)

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

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.4.241-150.347. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.4-2023-044 advisory.

    A vulnerability was found in the fs/inode.c:inode_init_owner() function logic of the LInux kernel that     allows local users to create files for the XFS file-system with an unintended group ownership and with     group execution and SGID permission bits set, in a scenario where a directory is SGID and belongs to a     certain group and is writable by a user who is not a member of this group. This can lead to excessive     permissions granted in case when they should not.  This vulnerability is similar to the previous     CVE-2018-13405 and adds the missed fix for the XFS. (CVE-2021-4037)

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

    tun: avoid double free in tun_free_netdev (CVE-2021-47082)

    A double-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's TUN/TAP device driver functionality in how a user     registers the device when the register_netdevice function fails (NETDEV_REGISTER notifier). This flaw     allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-4744)

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

    gfs2: Always check inode size of inline inodes (CVE-2022-49739)

    A use-after-free flaw was found in qdisc_graft in net/sched/sch_api.c in the Linux Kernel due to a race     problem. This flaw leads to a denial of service issue. (CVE-2023-0590)

    An out-of-bounds memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel's XFS file system in how a user restores     an XFS image after failure (with a dirty log journal). This flaw allows a local user to crash or     potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2023-2124)

    An out-of-bounds write vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's SLIMpro I2C device driver. The     userspace data->block[0] variable was not capped to a number between 0-255 and was used as the size of a     memcpy, possibly writing beyond the end of dma_buffer. This flaw could allow a local privileged user to     crash the system or potentially achieve code execution. (CVE-2023-2194)

    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)

    The Linux kernel before 6.2.9 has a race condition and resultant use-after-free in     drivers/net/ethernet/qualcomm/emac/emac.c if a physically proximate attacker unplugs an emac based device.

An update of the linux package has been released.

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 4.14.313-235.533. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2023-2027 advisory.

    A use-after-free flaw was found in vhost_net_set_backend in drivers/vhost/net.c in virtio network     subcomponent in the Linux kernel due to a double fget. This flaw could allow a local attacker to crash the     system, and could even lead to a kernel information leak problem. (CVE-2023-1838)

    An insufficient permission check has been found in the Bluetooth subsystem ofthe Linux kernel when     handling ioctl system calls of HCI sockets. This causestasks without the proper CAP_NET_ADMIN capability     can easily mark HCI socketsas _trusted_. Trusted sockets are intended to enable the sending and     receivingof management commands and events, such as pairing or connecting with a newdevice.  As a result,     unprivileged users can acquire a trusted socket, leadingto unauthorized execution of management commands.
    The exploit requires onlythe presence of a set of commonly used setuid programs (e.g., su, sudo).
    (CVE-2023-2002)

    An out-of-bounds memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel's XFS file system in how a user restores     an XFS image after failure (with a dirty log journal). This flaw allows a local user to crash or     potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2023-2124)

    cbq_classify in net/sched/sch_cbq.c in the Linux kernel through 6.1.4 allows attackers to cause a denial     of service (slab-out-of-bounds read) because of type confusion (non-negative numbers can sometimes     indicate a TC_ACT_SHOT condition rather than valid classification results). (CVE-2023-23454)
