The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.10.214-202.855. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.10-2024-054 advisory.

2024-05-23: CVE-2024-26898 was added to this advisory.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Defer the free of inner map when necessary

When updating or deleting an inner map in map array or map htab, the mapmay still be accessed by non-     sleepable program or sleepable program.However bpf_map_fd_put_ptr() decreases the ref-counter of the inner     mapdirectly through bpf_map_put(), if the ref-counter is the last one(which is true for most cases), the     inner map will be freed byops->map_free() in a kworker. But for now, most .map_free() callbacksdon't use     synchronize_rcu() or its variants to wait for the elapse of aRCU grace period, so after the invocation of     ops->map_free completes,the bpf program which is accessing the inner map may incuruse-after-free problem.

Fix the free of inner map by invoking bpf_map_free_deferred() after bothone RCU grace period and one tasks     trace RCU grace period if the innermap has been removed from the outer map before. The deferment     isaccomplished by using call_rcu() or call_rcu_tasks_trace() whenreleasing the last ref-counter of bpf     map. The newly-added rcu_headfield in bpf_map shares the same storage space with work field toreduce the     size of bpf_map. (CVE-2023-52447)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

aoe: fix the potential use-after-free problem in aoecmd_cfg_pkts (CVE-2024-26898)

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.
