"The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as
referenced in the SUSE-SU-2023:4343-1 advisory.
- Incorrect verifier pruning in BPF in Linux Kernel >=5.4 leads to unsafe code paths being incorrectly
marked as safe, resulting in arbitrary read/write in kernel memory, lateral privilege escalation, and
container escape. (CVE-2023-2163)
- An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in the SR-IPv6 implementation in the Linux kernel. The flaw
exists within the processing of seg6 attributes. The issue results from the improper validation of user-
supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer. This flaw allows a
privileged local user to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of the Linux kernel.
(CVE-2023-2860)
- An issue was discovered in drivers/mtd/ubi/cdev.c in the Linux kernel 6.2. There is a divide-by-zero error
in do_div(sz,mtd->erasesize), used indirectly by ctrl_cdev_ioctl, when mtd->erasesize is 0.
(CVE-2023-31085)
- The vulnerability exists due to improper event handling in Linux kernel. A malicious guest can disable
paravirtualized device to cause a deadlock in a backend domain (other than dom0). (CVE-2023-34324)
- A flaw was found in the Netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel. The nfnl_osf_add_callback function did
not validate the user mode controlled opt_num field. This flaw allows a local privileged (CAP_NET_ADMIN)
attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds read, leading to a crash or information disclosure. (CVE-2023-39189)
- An improper input validation flaw was found in the eBPF subsystem in the Linux kernel. The issue occurs
due to a lack of proper validation of dynamic pointers within user-supplied eBPF programs prior to
executing them. This may allow an attacker with CAP_BPF privileges to escalate privileges and execute
arbitrary code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2023-39191)
- A flaw was found in the Netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel. The sctp_mt_check did not validate the
flag_count field. This flaw allows a local privileged (CAP_NET_ADMIN) attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds
read, leading to a crash or information disclosure. (CVE-2023-39193)
- An issue was discovered in drivers/usb/storage/ene_ub6250.c for the ENE UB6250 reader driver in the Linux
kernel before 6.2.5. An object could potentially extend beyond the end of an allocation. (CVE-2023-45862)
- A use-after-free vulnerability was found in drivers/nvme/target/tcp.c` in `nvmet_tcp_free_crypto` due to a
logical bug in the NVMe-oF/TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel. This issue may allow a malicious user to
cause a use-after-free and double-free problem, which may permit remote code execution or lead to local
privilege escalation in case that the attacker already has local privileges. (CVE-2023-5178)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
