The remote SUSE Linux SLES12 / SLES_SAP12 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2024:1684-1 advisory.

  • Hardware logic contains race conditions in some Intel® Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable partial information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2023-45733)

  • Improper input validation in some Intel® TDX module software before version 1.5.05.46.698 may allow a privileged user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. (CVE-2023-45745, CVE-2023-47855)

  • Sequence of processor instructions leads to unexpected behavior in Intel® Core™ Ultra Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable denial of service via local access. (CVE-2023-46103)

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