"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tun: limit printing rate when illegal packet received by tun dev
vhost_worker will call tun call backs to receive packets. If too many
illegal packets arrives, tun_do_read will keep dumping packet
contents.  When console is enabled, it will costs much more cpu time
to dump  packet and soft lockup will be detected.    net_ratelimit
mechanism can be used to limit the dumping rate.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
