The remote Oracle Linux 7 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2019-2125 advisory.

  • Simultaneous Multi-threading (SMT) in processors can enable local users to exploit software vulnerable to timing attacks via a side-channel timing attack on ‘port contention’. (CVE-2018-5407)

  • Bounds checking in Tianocompress before November 7, 2017 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable an escalation of privilege via local access. (CVE-2017-5731)

  • Stack overflow in corrupted bmp for EDK II may allow unprivileged user to potentially enable denial of service or elevation of privilege via local access. (CVE-2018-12181)

  • Stack overflow in XHCI for EDK II may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable denial of service via local access. (CVE-2019-0161)

  • Logic issue in variable service module for EDK II/UDK2018/UDK2017/UDK2015 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege, information disclosure and/or denial of service via local access. (CVE-2018-3613)

  • Buffer overflow in system firmware for EDK II may allow unauthenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege and/or denial of service via network access. (CVE-2019-0160)

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