There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/mm/pat: Acquire init_mm read lock
    on attribute changes to avoid UAF A previous commit protected against races between ptdump and CPA
    collapse, however one still exists between attribute changes and collapse as reported by Denis V. Lunev
    (linked). When an attribute change arises, a lockless page table walker obtains a PTE entry, which is
    later written to via set_pte_atomic(): ... -> change_page_attr_set_clr() -> __change_page_attr_set_clr()
    -> __change_page_attr() -> _lookup_address_cpa() -> lookup_address_in_pgd_attr() -> [ lockless page table
    walker ] -> set_pte_atomic() There is nothing preventing a concurrent CPA collapse which can free the PTE
    that was retrieved here, resulting in a use-after-free. With the mmap write lock taken on init_mm over CPA
    collapse, resolve this race by acquiring an mmap read lock on init_mm over __change_page_attr_set_clr().
    This locks across the whole operation over which the walk and the PTE entry write occurs, solving the
    race. It is safe to do this here, as no spinlocks are held upon entry to __change_page_attr_set_clr().
    However, the lock must not be held over an allocation, as allocation can trigger reclaim and shrinkers may
    call into CPA recursively, making deadlocks possible (init_mm -> ... -> fs_reclaim -> init_mm). A page
    table is allocated when a huge page needs to be split: -> change_page_attr_set_clr() ->
    __change_page_attr_set_clr() -> __change_page_attr() -> split_large_page() [ pagetable_alloc() ] ->
    __split_large_page() Avoid deadlocks by dropping the mmap lock across pagetable_alloc() in
    split_large_page() and track whether this is needed by adding a new 'init_mm_read_locked' flag to struct
    cpa_data. This is safe as __split_large_page() (called with locks re-established) revalidates that the
    page table entry is the same as it was prior to the locks being dropped and __change_page_attr() repeats
    the entire page table walk whenever a split occurs, so concurrent split and collapse are accounted for.
    Concurrent ptdump is also safe as the lock is only dropped over page table allocation during which time
    the page table has not yet been modified. The CPA_COLLAPSE flag is only set by set_memory_rox(), which
    exclusively operates upon vmalloc ranges, and on x86 only within the module mapping space. This is
    important, because some callers directly invoke __change_page_attr_set_clr(), bypassing this lock.
    However, none of these operate within the module mapping space. * cpa_process_alias() - a recursive helper
    called by __change_page_attr_set_clr(). * __set_memory_enc_pgtable() - operates on the direct mapping and
    (via __vmbus_establish_gpadl()) the vmalloc mapping space. * __set_pages_[n]p() - called by
    set_direct_map_[invalid, default, valid]_noflush(), __kernel_map_pages() - operates on the direct map. *
    kernel_[un]map_pages_in_pgd() - operates on EFI ranges. This work is based upon Denis V. Lunev's excellent
    analysis of the bug with gratitude. [ dhansen: move to imperative voice in changelog ] (CVE-2026-97533)

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 ALAS2023-2026-3192 advisory.

    An issue in the Linux kernel's virtio-net/TAP networking path could allow an actor with privileged access     inside a guest virtual machine to send specially crafted network packets that corrupt host kernel memory     on KVM-based hypervisors running unpatched Linux kernel versions 4.4 through 6.18. This could result in     disclosure of host memory or a denial of service.
