"The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as
referenced in the RHSA-2024:4415 advisory.
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system.
Security Fix(es):
* kernel: netfilter: use-after-free in nft_trans_gc_catchall_sync leads to privilege escalation
(CVE-2024-0193)
* kernel: smb: client: fix potential OOBs in smb2_parse_contexts() (CVE-2023-52434)
* kernel: kvm: Avoid potential UAF in LPI translation cache (CVE-2024-26598)
* kernel: netfilter: nft_ct: sanitize layer 3 and 4 protocol number in custom expectations
(CVE-2024-26673)
Bug Fix(es):
* multi-page bvec configuration for integrity payload (JIRA:RHEL-15150)
* ipoib mcast lockup fix (JIRA:RHEL-30259)
* Kernel panic in skb_segment (JIRA:RHEL-30560)
