"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 4 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2024:0602 advisory.

    Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 4 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2023-20577:
    A vulnerability was found in AMD hardware due to a heap overflow in the SMM module. This issue could allow
    a local unauthenticated attacker to enable writing to SPI flash to execute arbitrary code.

    CVE-2023-20576:
    A vulnerability was found in AMD hardware due to insufficient verification of data authenticity in AGESA.
    This issue may allow a local unauthenticated attacker to update SPI ROM data, potentially resulting in
    denial of service or privilege escalation.

    CVE-2023-20579:
    Improper
    Access Control in the AMD SPI protection feature may allow a user with Ring0
    (kernel mode) privileged access to bypass protections potentially resulting in
    loss of integrity and availability.

    CVE-2023-20587:
    Improper
    Access Control in System Management Mode (SMM) may allow an attacker access to
    the SPI flash potentially leading to arbitrary code execution.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.

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