"The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.4.80-40.140. It is, therefore, affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.4-2022-018 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A use-after-free memory flaw was found in the perf subsystem
    allowing a local attacker with permission to monitor perf events to corrupt memory and possibly escalate
    privileges. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as
    system availability. (CVE-2020-14351)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A use-after-free was found in the way the console subsystem was
    using ioctls KDGKBSENT and KDSKBSENT. A local user could use this flaw to get read memory access out of
    bounds. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality. (CVE-2020-25656)

  - A flaw was found in Linux Kernel because access to the global variable fg_console is not properly
    synchronized leading to a use after free in con_font_op. (CVE-2020-25668)

  - A flaw memory leak in the Linux kernel performance monitoring subsystem was found in the way if using
    PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_FILTER. A local user could use this flaw to starve the resources causing denial of
    service. (CVE-2020-25704)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.9.1, as used with Xen through 4.14.x. Guest OS users
    can cause a denial of service (host OS hang) via a high rate of events to dom0, aka CID-e99502f76271.
    (CVE-2020-27673)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.9.1, as used with Xen through 4.14.x.
    drivers/xen/events/events_base.c allows event-channel removal during the event-handling loop (a race
    condition). This can cause a use-after-free or NULL pointer dereference, as demonstrated by a dom0 crash
    via events for an in-reconfiguration paravirtualized device, aka CID-073d0552ead5. (CVE-2020-27675)

  - A slab-out-of-bounds read in fbcon in the Linux kernel before 5.9.7 could be used by local attackers to
    read privileged information or potentially crash the kernel, aka CID-3c4e0dff2095. This occurs because
    KD_FONT_OP_COPY in drivers/tty/vt/vt.c can be used for manipulations such as font height. (CVE-2020-28974)

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