An update of the linux package has been released.

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: drm/vmwgfx: avoid     destroy_workqueue(NULL) on vkms init failure Two paths through vmw_vkms_init() can leave vmw->crc_workq     NULL while still leaving the rest of the driver in a state that calls vmw_vkms_cleanup() at module unload:
    1. vmw_host_get_guestinfo(GUESTINFO_VBLANK, ...) failing or returning an oversized buffer -- the common     case on hosts without a VBLANK guestinfo entry -- early-returned before the workqueue allocation. 2.
    alloc_ordered_workqueue() returning NULL on memory pressure. vmw_vkms_cleanup() then calls     destroy_workqueue(NULL), which dereferences wq->name and panics. Fix the first case by removing the early     return: vmw->vkms_enabled is already false on the rpci-failure path so no work will ever be queued, and     allocating the workqueue unconditionally keeps the control flow simple. Fix the second case by guarding     the cleanup with a NULL check, since alloc_ordered_workqueue() can still fail under low memory.
    (CVE-2026-74442)

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

The remote Debian 13 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-6466 advisory.

    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that     may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information     leaks.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in     version 6.12.105-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux packages.
