"The remote AlmaLinux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
ALSA-2023:0954 advisory.
- A vulnerability was found in systemd. This security flaw can cause a local information leak due to
systemd-coredump not respecting the fs.suid_dumpable kernel setting. (CVE-2022-4415)
- systemd 250 and 251 allows local users to achieve a systemd-coredump deadlock by triggering a crash that
has a long backtrace. This occurs in parse_elf_object in shared/elf-util.c. The exploitation methodology
is to crash a binary calling the same function recursively, and put it in a deeply nested directory to
make its backtrace large enough to cause the deadlock. This must be done 16 times when MaxConnections=16
is set for the systemd/units/systemd-coredump.socket file. (CVE-2022-45873)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
