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

  - netfilter: conntrack: fix wrong ct->timeout value (struct nf_conn)->timeout is an interval before the     conntrack confirmed. After confirmed, it becomes a timestamp. It is observed that timeout of an     unconfirmed conntrack: - Set by calling ctnetlink_change_timeout(). As a result, `nfct_time_stamp` was     wrongly added to `ct->timeout` twice. - Get by calling ctnetlink_dump_timeout(). As a result,     `nfct_time_stamp` was wrongly subtracted.

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

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-184 advisory.

    There is a potential deadlock in the eBPF subsystem in the Linux kernel.

    The default sysctl configuration kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled on Amazon Linux does not allow     unprivileged users to use eBPF. (CVE-2023-0160)

    A denial of service problem was found, due to a possible recursive locking scenario, resulting in a     deadlock in table_clear in drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c in the Linux Kernel Device Mapper-Multipathing sub-     component. (CVE-2023-2269)

    In the Linux kernel through 6.3.1, a use-after-free in Netfilter nf_tables when processing batch requests     can be abused to perform arbitrary read and write operations on kernel memory. Unprivileged local users     can obtain root privileges. This occurs because anonymous sets are mishandled. (CVE-2023-32233)

    An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.3.3. There is an out-of-bounds read in crc16 in     lib/crc16.c when called from fs/ext4/super.c because ext4_group_desc_csum does not properly check an     offset. (CVE-2023-34256)

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

    ext4: fix i_disksize exceeding i_size problem in paritally written case (CVE-2023-53270)

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

    tcp/udp: Fix memleaks of sk and zerocopy skbs with TX timestamp. (CVE-2023-53489)

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

    blk-crypto: make blk_crypto_evict_key() more robust (CVE-2023-53536)

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

    drm/i915: Make intel_get_crtc_new_encoder() less oopsy (CVE-2023-53571)

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

    tcp: fix skb_copy_ubufs() vs BIG TCP (CVE-2023-53669)

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

    ext4: fix use-after-free read in ext4_find_extent for bigalloc + inline (CVE-2023-53692)

    A use-after-free flaw was found in the __ext4_remount in fs/ext4/super.c in ext4 in the Linux kernel. This     flaw allows a local user to cause an information leak problem while freeing the old quota file names     before a potential failure, leading to a use-after-free. (CVE-2024-0775)
