"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-2024-35853 advisory.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix memory
    leak during rehash The rehash delayed work migrates filters from one region to another. This is done by
    iterating over all chunks (all the filters with the same priority) in the region and in each chunk
    iterating over all the filters. If the migration fails, the code tries to migrate the filters back to the
    old region. However, the rollback itself can also fail in which case another migration will be erroneously
    performed. Besides the fact that this ping pong is not a very good idea, it also creates a problem. Each
    virtual chunk references two chunks: The currently used one ('vchunk->chunk') and a backup
    ('vchunk->chunk2'). During migration the first holds the chunk we want to migrate filters to and the
    second holds the chunk we are migrating filters from. The code currently assumes - but does not verify -
    that the backup chunk does not exist (NULL) if the currently used chunk does not reference the target
    region. This assumption breaks when we are trying to rollback a rollback, resulting in the backup chunk
    being overwritten and leaked [1]. Fix by not rolling back a failed rollback and add a warning to avoid
    future cases. [1] WARNING: CPU: 5 PID: 1063 at lib/parman.c:291 parman_destroy+0x17/0x20 Modules linked
