The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 4.14.345-262.561. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2024-2584 advisory.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: disallow timeout for anonymous sets (CVE-2023-52620)
create_empty_lvol in drivers/mtd/ubi/vtbl.c in the Linux kernel through 6.7.4 can attempt to allocate zero bytes, and crash, because of a missing check for ubi->leb_size. (CVE-2024-25739)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: disallow anonymous set with timeout flag (CVE-2024-26642)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI/PM: Drain runtime-idle callbacks before driver removal (CVE-2024-35809)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
