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: sme: Use STR P to clear FFR     context field in streaming SVE mode The FFR is a predicate register which can vary between 16 and 256 bits     in size depending upon the configured vector length. When saving the SVE state in streaming SVE mode, the     FFR register is inaccessible and so commit 9f5848665788 (arm64/sve: Make access to FFR optional) simply     clears the FFR field of the in-memory context structure. Unfortunately, it achieves this using an     unconditional 8-byte store and so if the SME vector length is anything other than 64 bytes in size we will     either fail to clear the entire field or, worse, we will corrupt memory immediately following the     structure. This has led to intermittent kfence splats in CI [1] and can trigger kmalloc Redzone corruption     messages when running the 'fp-stress' kselftest: |     ============================================================================= | BUG kmalloc-1k (Not     tainted): kmalloc Redzone overwritten |

Replace     the 8-byte store with a store of a predicate register which has been zero-initialised with PFALSE,     ensuring that the entire field is cleared in memory.

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 ALAS2023-2023-299 advisory.

    An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.2. The ntfs3 subsystem does not properly check for     correctness during disk reads, leading to an out-of-bounds read in ntfs_set_ea in fs/ntfs3/xattr.c.
    (CVE-2022-48502)

    An out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: sch_qfq component can be exploited     to achieve local privilege escalation.

    The qfq_change_agg() function in net/sched/sch_qfq.c allows an out-of-bounds write because lmax is updated     according to packet sizes without bounds checks.

    We recommend upgrading past commit 3e337087c3b5805fe0b8a46ba622a962880b5d64. (CVE-2023-3611)

    A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/sched: cls_fw component can be exploited to     achieve local privilege escalation.

    If tcf_change_indev() fails, fw_set_parms() will immediately return an error after incrementing or     decrementing the reference counter in tcf_bind_filter(). If an attacker can control the reference counter     and set it to zero, they can cause the reference to be freed, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability.

    We recommend upgrading past commit 0323bce598eea038714f941ce2b22541c46d488f. (CVE-2023-3776)

    An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in Netfilter Connection Tracking (conntrack) in the Linux     kernel. This flaw allows a remote user to disclose sensitive information via the DCCP protocol.
    (CVE-2023-39197)

    An issue was discovered in net/ceph/messenger_v2.c in the Linux kernel before 6.4.5. There is an integer     signedness error, leading to a buffer overflow and remote code execution via HELLO or one of the AUTH     frames. This occurs because of an untrusted length taken from a TCP packet in ceph_decode_32.
    (CVE-2023-44466)

    In the Linux kernel before 6.4.5, drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic.c has a use-after-free during a race     condition between a nonblocking atomic commit and a driver unload. (CVE-2023-51043)
