The version of kernel installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2023-6931 advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

- A heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Performance Events system component can be
exploited to achieve local privilege escalation. A perf_event's read_size can overflow, leading to an heap
out-of-bounds increment or write in perf_read_group(). We recommend upgrading past commit
382c27f4ed28f803b1f1473ac2d8db0afc795a1b. (CVE-2023-6931)
