"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.05 / MAIN 5.05, has kernel packages installed that are affected by
multiple vulnerabilities:

  - An integer overflow flaw was found in the way the Linux
    kernel's networking subsystem processed TCP Selective
    Acknowledgment (SACK) segments. While processing SACK
    segments, the Linux kernel's socket buffer (SKB) data
    structure becomes fragmented. Each fragment is about TCP
    maximum segment size (MSS) bytes. To efficiently process
    SACK blocks, the Linux kernel merges multiple fragmented
    SKBs into one, potentially overflowing the variable
    holding the number of segments. A remote attacker could
    use this flaw to crash the Linux kernel by sending a
    crafted sequence of SACK segments on a TCP connection
    with small value of TCP MSS, resulting in a denial of
    service (DoS). (CVE-2019-11477)

  - An excessive resource consumption flaw was found in the
    way the Linux kernel's networking subsystem processed
    TCP Selective Acknowledgment (SACK) segments. While
    processing SACK segments, the Linux kernel's socket
    buffer (SKB) data structure becomes fragmented, which
    leads to increased resource utilization to traverse and
    process these fragments as further SACK segments are
    received on the same TCP connection. A remote attacker
    could use this flaw to cause a denial of service (DoS)
    by sending a crafted sequence of SACK segments on a TCP
    connection. (CVE-2019-11478)

  - An excessive resource consumption flaw was found in the
    way the Linux kernel's networking subsystem processed
    TCP segments. If the Maximum Segment Size (MSS) of a TCP
    connection was set to low values, such as 48 bytes, it
    can leave as little as 8 bytes for the user data, which
    significantly increases the Linux kernel's resource
    (CPU, Memory, and Bandwidth) utilization. A remote
    attacker could use this flaw to cause a denial of
    service (DoS) by repeatedly sending network traffic on a
    TCP connection with low TCP MSS. (CVE-2019-11479)

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