"The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as
referenced in the RHSA-2024:6160 advisory.

    The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables fine-tuning for systems with
    extremely high determinism requirements.

    Security Fix(es):

    * kernel: net/sched: act_api: fix possible infinite loop in tcf_idr_check_alloc() (CVE-2024-40995)

    * kernel: perf: Fix list corruption in perf_cgroup_switch() (CVE-2022-48799)

    * kernel: virtio-net: tap: mlx5_core short frame denial of service (CVE-2024-41090)

    * kernel: virtio-net: tun: mlx5_core short frame denial of service (CVE-2024-41091)
