"The remote Oracle Linux 7 / 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in
the ELSA-2022-9710 advisory.

  - Intel microprocessor generations 6 to 8 are affected by a new Spectre variant that is able to bypass their
    retpoline mitigation in the kernel to leak arbitrary data. An attacker with unprivileged user access can
    hijack return instructions to achieve arbitrary speculative code execution under certain
    microarchitecture-dependent conditions. (CVE-2022-29901)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's KVM when attempting to set a SynIC IRQ. This issue makes it
    possible for a misbehaving VMM to write to SYNIC/STIMER MSRs, causing a NULL pointer dereference. This
    flaw allows an unprivileged local attacker on the host to issue specific ioctl calls, causing a kernel
    oops condition that results in a denial of service. (CVE-2022-2153)

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