"The remote Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced
in the ALINUX3-SA-2022:0084 advisory.

    Package updates are available for Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2020-25650:
    A flaw was found in the way the spice-vdagentd daemon handled file transfers from the host system to the
    virtual machine. Any unprivileged local guest user with access to the UNIX domain socket path `/run/spice-
    vdagentd/spice-vdagent-sock` could use this flaw to perform a memory denial of service for spice-vdagentd
    or even other processes in the VM system. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system
    availability. This flaw affects spice-vdagent versions 0.20 and previous versions.

    CVE-2020-25651:
    A flaw was found in the SPICE file transfer protocol. File data from the host system can end up in full or
    in parts in the client connection of an illegitimate local user in the VM system. Active file transfers
    from other users could also be interrupted, resulting in a denial of service. The highest threat from this
    vulnerability is to data confidentiality as well as system availability. This flaw affects spice-vdagent
    versions 0.20 and prior.

    CVE-2020-25652:
    A flaw was found in the spice-vdagentd daemon, where it did not properly handle client connections that
    can be established via the UNIX domain socket in `/run/spice-vdagentd/spice-vdagent-sock`. Any
    unprivileged local guest user could use this flaw to prevent legitimate agents from connecting to the
    spice-vdagentd daemon, resulting in a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to
    system availability. This flaw affects spice-vdagent versions 0.20 and prior.

    CVE-2020-25653:
    A race condition vulnerability was found in the way the spice-vdagentd daemon handled new client
    connections. This flaw may allow an unprivileged local guest user to become the active agent for spice-
    vdagentd, possibly resulting in a denial of service or information leakage from the host. The highest
    threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality as well as system availability. This flaw
    affects spice-vdagent versions 0.20 and prior.
