"The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.4.68-34.125. It is, therefore, affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.4-2022-016 advisory.

  - In the Linux kernel 5.0.21 and 5.3.11, mounting a crafted btrfs filesystem image, performing some
    operations, and then making a syncfs system call can lead to a use-after-free in try_merge_free_space in
    fs/btrfs/free-space-cache.c because the pointer to a left data structure can be the same as the pointer to
    a right data structure. (CVE-2019-19448)

  - ** DISPUTED ** In the Linux kernel 4.19.83, there is a use-after-free (read) in the debugfs_remove
    function in fs/debugfs/inode.c (which is used to remove a file or directory in debugfs that was previously
    created with a call to another debugfs function such as debugfs_create_file). NOTE: Linux kernel
    developers dispute this issue as not being an issue with debugfs, instead this is an issue with misuse of
    debugfs within blktrace. (CVE-2019-19770)

  - The VFIO PCI driver in the Linux kernel through 5.6.13 mishandles attempts to access disabled memory
    space. (CVE-2020-12888)

  - A memory out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the Linux kernel before 5.9-rc2 with the ext3/ext4 file
    system, in the way it accesses a directory with broken indexing. This flaw allows a local user to crash
    the system if the directory exists. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
    (CVE-2020-14314)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel before 5.9-rc4. A failure of the file system metadata validator in
    XFS can cause an inode with a valid, user-creatable extended attribute to be flagged as corrupt. This can
    lead to the filesystem being shutdown, or otherwise rendered inaccessible until it is remounted, leading
    to a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
    (CVE-2020-14385)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in versions before 5.9-rc6. When changing screen size, an out-of-
    bounds memory write can occur leading to memory corruption or a denial of service. Due to the nature of
    the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out. (CVE-2020-14390)

  - A TOCTOU mismatch in the NFS client code in the Linux kernel before 5.8.3 could be used by local attackers
    to corrupt memory or possibly have unspecified other impact because a size check is in fs/nfs/nfs4proc.c
    instead of fs/nfs/nfs4xdr.c, aka CID-b4487b935452. (CVE-2020-25212)

  - The rbd block device driver in drivers/block/rbd.c in the Linux kernel through 5.8.9 used incomplete
    permission checking for access to rbd devices, which could be leveraged by local attackers to map or unmap
    rbd block devices, aka CID-f44d04e696fe. (CVE-2020-25284)

  - A race condition between hugetlb sysctl handlers in mm/hugetlb.c in the Linux kernel before 5.8.8 could be
    used by local attackers to corrupt memory, cause a NULL pointer dereference, or possibly have unspecified
    other impact, aka CID-17743798d812. (CVE-2020-25285)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of biovecs in versions before 5.9-rc7. A zero-length
    biovec request issued by the block subsystem could cause the kernel to enter an infinite loop, causing a
    denial of service. This flaw allows a local attacker with basic privileges to issue requests to a block
    device, resulting in a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system
    availability. (CVE-2020-25641)

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