"The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 4.14.281-212.502. It is, therefore, affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2022-1798 advisory.

  - A memory leak flaw was found in the Linux kernel's DMA subsystem, in the way a user calls DMA_FROM_DEVICE.
    This flaw allows a local user to read random memory from the kernel space. (CVE-2022-0854)

  - A race condition was found the Linux kernel in perf_event_open() which can be exploited by an unprivileged
    user to gain root privileges. The bug allows to build several exploit primitives such as kernel address
    information leak, arbitrary execution, etc. (CVE-2022-1729)

  - An integer coercion error was found in the openvswitch kernel module. Given a sufficiently large number of
    actions, while copying and reserving memory for a new action of a new flow, the reserve_sfa_size()
    function does not return -EMSGSIZE as expected, potentially leading to an out-of-bounds write access. This
    flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-2639)

  - Improper Update of Reference Count vulnerability in net/sched of Linux Kernel allows local attacker to
    cause privilege escalation to root. This issue affects: Linux Kernel versions prior to 5.18; version 4.14
    and later versions. (CVE-2022-29581)

  - The Linux kernel before 5.17.2 mishandles seccomp permissions. The PTRACE_SEIZE code path allows attackers
    to bypass intended restrictions on setting the PT_SUSPEND_SECCOMP flag. (CVE-2022-30594)

  - An issue was discovered in drivers/input/input.c in the Linux kernel before 5.17.10. An attacker can cause
    a denial of service (panic) because input_set_capability mishandles the situation in which an event code
    falls outside of a bitmap. (CVE-2022-48619)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in vmxnet3_rq_alloc_rx_buf in drivers/net/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_drv.c in
    VMware's vmxnet3 ethernet NIC driver in the Linux Kernel. This issue could allow a local attacker to crash
    the system due to a double-free while cleaning up vmxnet3_rq_cleanup_all, which could also lead to a
    kernel information leak problem. (CVE-2023-4387)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in vmxnet3_rq_cleanup in drivers/net/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_drv.c in
    the networking sub-component in vmxnet3 in the Linux Kernel. This issue may allow a local attacker with
    normal user privilege to cause a denial of service due to a missing sanity check during cleanup.
    (CVE-2023-4459)

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