The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.10.216-204.855. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.10-2024-057 advisory.
2024-05-23: CVE-2024-26923 was added to this advisory.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tls: fix race between async notify and socket close
The submitting thread (one which called recvmsg/sendmsg)may exit as soon as the async crypto handler calls complete()so any code past that point risks touching already freed data.
Try to avoid the locking and extra flags altogether.Have the main thread hold an extra reference, this waywe can depend solely on the atomic ref counter forsynchronization.
Don't futz with reiniting the completion, either, we are nowtightly controlling when completion fires.
(CVE-2024-26583)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: tls: handle backlogging of crypto requests
Since we're setting the CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_BACKLOG flag on ourrequests to the crypto API, crypto_aead_{encrypt,decrypt} can return-EBUSY instead of -EINPROGRESS in valid situations. For example, whenthe cryptd queue for AESNI is full (easy to trigger with anartificially low cryptd.cryptd_max_cpu_qlen), requests will be enqueuedto the backlog but still processed. In that case, the async callbackwill also be called twice: first with err == -EINPROGRESS, which itseems we can just ignore, then with err == 0.
Compared to Sabrina's original patch this version uses the newtls_*crypt_async_wait() helpers and converts the EBUSY toEINPROGRESS to avoid having to modify all the error handlingpaths. The handling is identical.
(CVE-2024-26584)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
af_unix: Fix garbage collector racing against connect() (CVE-2024-26923)
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.
