"The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.4.117-58.216. It is, therefore, affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.4-2022-003 advisory.

  - A vulnerability was found in Linux Kernel where refcount leak in llcp_sock_bind() causing use-after-free
    which might lead to privilege escalations. (CVE-2020-25670)

  - A vulnerability was found in Linux Kernel, where a refcount leak in llcp_sock_connect() causing use-after-
    free which might lead to privilege escalations. (CVE-2020-25671)

  - A memory leak vulnerability was found in Linux kernel in llcp_sock_connect (CVE-2020-25672)

  - A vulnerability was found in Linux kernel where non-blocking socket in llcp_sock_connect() leads to leak
    and eventually hanging-up the system. (CVE-2020-25673)

  - A race condition in Linux kernel SCTP sockets (net/sctp/socket.c) before 5.12-rc8 can lead to kernel
    privilege escalation from the context of a network service or an unprivileged process. If
    sctp_destroy_sock is called without sock_net(sk)->sctp.addr_wq_lock then an element is removed from the
    auto_asconf_splist list without any proper locking. This can be exploited by an attacker with network
    service privileges to escalate to root or from the context of an unprivileged user directly if a
    BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE is attached which denies creation of some SCTP socket. (CVE-2021-23133)

  - BPF JIT compilers in the Linux kernel through 5.11.12 have incorrect computation of branch displacements,
    allowing them to execute arbitrary code within the kernel context. This affects
    arch/x86/net/bpf_jit_comp.c and arch/x86/net/bpf_jit_comp32.c. (CVE-2021-29154)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.11.x. kernel/bpf/verifier.c performs undesirable
    out-of-bounds speculation on pointer arithmetic, leading to side-channel attacks that defeat Spectre
    mitigations and obtain sensitive information from kernel memory. Specifically, for sequences of pointer
    arithmetic operations, the pointer modification performed by the first operation is not correctly
    accounted for when restricting subsequent operations. (CVE-2021-29155)

  - kernel/bpf/verifier.c in the Linux kernel through 5.12.1 performs undesirable speculative loads, leading
    to disclosure of stack content via side-channel attacks, aka CID-801c6058d14a. The specific concern is not
    protecting the BPF stack area against speculative loads. Also, the BPF stack can contain uninitialized
    data that might represent sensitive information previously operated on by the kernel. (CVE-2021-31829)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: hso: fix null-ptr-deref during
    tty device unregistration Multiple ttys try to claim the same the minor number causing a double
    unregistration of the same device. The first unregistration succeeds but the next one results in a null-
    ptr-deref. The get_free_serial_index() function returns an available minor number but doesn't assign it
    immediately. The assignment is done by the caller later. But before this assignment, calls to
    get_free_serial_index() would return the same minor number. Fix this by modifying get_free_serial_index to
    assign the minor number immediately after one is found to be and rename it to obtain_minor() to better
    reflect what it does. Similary, rename set_serial_by_index() to release_minor() and modify it to free up
    the minor number of the given hso_serial. Every obtain_minor() should have corresponding release_minor()
    call. (CVE-2021-46904)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: hso: fix NULL-deref on disconnect
    regression Commit 8a12f8836145 (net: hso: fix null-ptr-deref during tty device unregistration) fixed the
    racy minor allocation reported by syzbot, but introduced an unconditional NULL-pointer dereference on
    every disconnect instead. Specifically, the serial device table must no longer be accessed after the minor
    has been released by hso_serial_tty_unregister(). (CVE-2021-46905)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nft_limit: avoid possible
    divide error in nft_limit_init div_u64() divides u64 by u32. nft_limit_init() wants to divide u64 by u64,
    use the appropriate math function (div64_u64) divide error: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN CPU: 1 PID: 8390
