The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2022:0849 advisory.
kernel: Use After Free in unix_gc() which could result in a local privilege escalation (CVE-2021-0920)
kernel: local privilege escalation by exploiting the fsconfig syscall parameter leads to container breakout (CVE-2021-4154)
kernel: possible privileges escalation due to missing TLB flush (CVE-2022-0330)
kernel: remote stack overflow via kernel panic on systems using TIPC may lead to DoS (CVE-2022-0435)
kernel: cgroups v1 release_agent feature may allow privilege escalation (CVE-2022-0492)
kernel: failing usercopy allows for use-after-free exploitation (CVE-2022-22942)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
