The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2024:4107 advisory.

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system.

Security Fix(es):

* kernel: race condition in snd_pcm_hw_free leading to use-after-free (CVE-2022-1048)

* kernel: netfilter: nf_tables: disallow anonymous set with timeout flag (CVE-2024-26642)

* kernel: fs: sysfs: Fix reference leak in sysfs_break_active_protection() (CVE-2024-26993)

Bug Fix(es):

* core: backport rps_default_mask support (JIRA:RHEL-26427)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and     other related information, refer the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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