"The remote Oracle Linux 7 / 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in
the ELSA-2021-9220 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.11.3, as used with Xen PV. A certain part of the
    netback driver lacks necessary treatment of errors such as failed memory allocations (as a result of
    changes to the handling of grant mapping errors). A host OS denial of service may occur during misbehavior
    of a networking frontend driver. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2021-26931.
    (CVE-2021-28038)

  - The fix for XSA-365 includes initialization of pointers such that subsequent cleanup code wouldn't use
    uninitialized or stale values. This initialization went too far and may under certain conditions also
    overwrite pointers which are in need of cleaning up. The lack of cleanup would result in leaking
    persistent grants. The leak in turn would prevent fully cleaning up after a respective guest has died,
    leaving around zombie domains. All Linux versions having the fix for XSA-365 applied are vulnerable.
    XSA-365 was classified to affect versions back to at least 3.11. (CVE-2021-28688)

  - A race condition was discovered in get_old_root in fs/btrfs/ctree.c in the Linux kernel through 5.11.8. It
    allows attackers to cause a denial of service (BUG) because of a lack of locking on an extent buffer
    before a cloning operation, aka CID-dbcc7d57bffc. (CVE-2021-28964)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.11.11. The netfilter subsystem allows attackers to
    cause a denial of service (panic) because net/netfilter/x_tables.c and include/linux/netfilter/x_tables.h
    lack a full memory barrier upon the assignment of a new table value, aka CID-175e476b8cdf.
    (CVE-2021-29650)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/fuse/fuse_i.h in the Linux kernel before 5.11.8. A stall on CPU can occur
    because a retry loop continually finds the same bad inode, aka CID-775c5033a0d1. (CVE-2021-28950)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in versions prior to 5.10. A violation of memory access was found
    while detecting a padding of int3 in the linking state. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to
    data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability. (CVE-2021-3411)

  - In intel_pmu_drain_pebs_nhm in arch/x86/events/intel/ds.c in the Linux kernel through 5.11.8 on some
    Haswell CPUs, userspace applications (such as perf-fuzzer) can cause a system crash because the PEBS
    status in a PEBS record is mishandled, aka CID-d88d05a9e0b6. (CVE-2021-28971)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.11.9. drivers/vhost/vdpa.c has a use-after-free
    because v->config_ctx has an invalid value upon re-opening a character device, aka CID-f6bbf0010ba0.
    (CVE-2021-29266)

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