There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

  - Arm C1-Ultra, C1-Premium, Neoverse V3 & V3AE, Neoverse V2, Neoverse V1, Neoverse-N2, Neoverse-N1,
    Cortex-X925, Cortex-X4, Cortex-X3, Cortex-X2, Cortex-X1 & X1C, Cortex-A710, Cortex-A78, A78AE & A78C,
    Cortex-A77, Cortex-A76 & A76A may allow writes to resources owned by a higher exception level.
    (CVE-2025-10263)

  - HVM guest I/O port accesses are subject to either emulation or at least translation. Translations are
    managed by the device model (via XEN_DOMCTL_ioport_mapping), and hence the linked list used may changed at
    any time. Traversal of those lists (while handling guest I/O port accesses) therefore needs synchronizing
    with updates, which was missing so far. (CVE-2026-42487)

  - Some shadow paging errors paths will switch the page-tables without updating the currently running vCPU
    reference. This causes a mismatch between the loaded page-tables and the mapcache metadata which can lead
    to corruption of the mapcache. (CVE-2026-42488)

  - [This CNA information record relates to multiple CVEs; the text explains which aspects/vulnerabilities
    correspond to which CVE.] To create and manage guests, domctl operations are used by the control domain, a
    possible Xenstore domain, or by a domain controlling a particular guest. Some of these operations may not
    be executed in parallel, so a system-wide lock is used. The way that lock is acquired is, however, not
    providing any fairness. This is CVE-2026-42489. Furthermore, with XSM/Flask in use, the lock acquire will,
    for some operations, occur ahead of any permission checking. This is CVE-2026-42490. (CVE-2026-42489,
    CVE-2026-42490)

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:2328-1 advisory.

    - CVE-2026-42487: x86 HVM I/O port list traversal (bsc#1266952).
    - CVE-2026-42488: x86: mismatched mapcache metadata (bsc#1266955).
    - CVE-2026-42489,CVE-2026-42490: domctl lock open to abuse (bsc#1266953).

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE 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 remote Fedora 44 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2026-24b84f97af advisory.

    x86 HVM I/O port list traversal [XSA-491, CVE-2026-42487]     domctl lock open to abuse [XSA-492, CVE-2026-42489, CVE-2026-42490]     Arm: Completion of memory accesses not guaranteed by completion of a TLBI     [XSA-493, CVE-2025-10263]     x86: mismatched mapcache metadata [XSA-494, CVE-2026-42488]

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

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

Some shadow paging errors paths will switch the page-tables without updating the currently running vCPU reference.
This causes a mismatch between the loaded page-tables and the mapcache metadata which can lead to corruption of the mapcache. This can result in privilege escalation, Denial of Service (DoS) affecting the entire host, and information leaks.

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

The remote Debian 13 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-6424 advisory.

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Xen hypervisor,     which could result in privilege escalation, information disclosure or     denial of service.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in     version 4.20.3+127-gc42374a105-0+deb13u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your xen packages.
