The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2022:8974 advisory.

  • kernel: KVM: cmpxchg_gpte can write to pfns outside the userspace region (CVE-2022-1158)

  • hw: cpu: incomplete clean-up of multi-core shared buffers (aka SBDR) (CVE-2022-21123)

  • hw: cpu: incomplete clean-up of microarchitectural fill buffers (aka SBDS) (CVE-2022-21125)

  • hw: cpu: incomplete clean-up in specific special register write operations (aka DRPW) (CVE-2022-21166)

  • hw: cpu: AMD: Branch Type Confusion (non-retbleed) (CVE-2022-23825)

  • hw: cpu: Intel: Post-barrier Return Stack Buffer Predictions (CVE-2022-26373)

  • kernel: openvswitch: integer underflow leads to out-of-bounds write in reserve_sfa_size() (CVE-2022-2639)

  • kernel: watch queue race condition can lead to privilege escalation (CVE-2022-2959)

  • hw: cpu: AMD: RetBleed Arbitrary Speculative Code Execution with Return Instructions (CVE-2022-29900)

  • hw: cpu: Intel: RetBleed Arbitrary Speculative Code Execution with Return Instructions (CVE-2022-29901)

  • kernel: nfsd buffer overflow by RPC message over TCP with garbage data (CVE-2022-43945)

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