"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 7.02, has openvswitch packages installed that are affected by
multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A flaw was found in Open vSwitch that allows ICMPv6 Neighbor Advertisement packets between virtual
    machines to bypass OpenFlow rules. This issue may allow a local attacker to create specially crafted
    packets with a modified or spoofed target IP address field that can redirect ICMPv6 traffic to arbitrary
    IP addresses. (CVE-2023-5366)

  - A flaw was found in Open vSwitch where multiple versions are vulnerable to crafted Geneve packets, which
    may result in a denial of service and invalid memory accesses. Triggering this issue requires that
    hardware offloading via the netlink path is enabled. (CVE-2023-3966)

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