"The version of hyperv-daemons installed on the remote Azure Linux 3.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore,
affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2023-52647 advisory.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: nxp: imx8-isi: Check whether
    crossbar pad is non-NULL before access When translating source to sink streams in the crossbar subdev, the
    driver tries to locate the remote subdev connected to the sink pad. The remote pad May be NULL, if
    userspace tries to enable a stream that ends at an unconnected crossbar sink. When that occurs, the driver
    dereferences the NULL pad, leading to a crash. Prevent the crash by checking if the pad is NULL before
    using it, and return an error if it is. (CVE-2023-52647)

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