"The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2024:1712263970 advisory.
- A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's SGI GRU driver in the way the first
gru_file_unlocked_ioctl function is called by the user, where a fail pass occurs in the
gru_check_chiplet_assignment function. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate
their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-3424)
- A vulnerability has been found in Linux Kernel and classified as critical. Affected by this vulnerability
is the function area_cache_get of the file drivers/net/ethernet/netronome/nfp/nfpcore/nfp_cppcore.c of the
component IPsec. The manipulation leads to use after free. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this
issue. The identifier VDB-211045 was assigned to this vulnerability. (CVE-2022-3545)
- The Linux kernel before 5.18.13 lacks a certain clear operation for the block starting symbol (.bss). This
allows Xen PV guest OS users to cause a denial of service or gain privileges. (CVE-2022-36123)
- A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A NULL pointer dereference may occur while a slip driver is in
progress to detach in sl_tx_timeout in drivers/net/slip/slip.c. This issue could allow an attacker to
crash the system or leak internal kernel information. (CVE-2022-41858)
- There are use-after-free vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel's net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c's l2cap_connect
and l2cap_le_connect_req functions which may allow code execution and leaking kernel memory (respectively)
remotely via Bluetooth. A remote attacker could execute code leaking kernel memory via Bluetooth if within
proximity of the victim. We recommend upgrading past commit https://www.google.com/url
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/711f8c3fb3db61897080468586b970c87c61d9e4
https://www.google.com/url (CVE-2022-42896)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
