  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/kvm: Disable kvmclock on all CPUs
    on shutdown Currenly, we disable kvmclock from machine_shutdown() hook and this only happens for boot CPU.
    We need to disable it for all CPUs to guard against memory corruption e.g. on restore from hibernate.
    Note, writing '0' to kvmclock MSR doesn't clear memory location, it just prevents hypervisor from updating
    the location so for the short while after write and while CPU is still alive, the clock remains usable and
    correct so we don't need to switch to some other clocksource. (CVE-2021-47110)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: pvrusb2: fix array-index-out-
    of-bounds in pvr2_i2c_core_init Syzbot reported that -1 is used as array index. The problem was in missing
    validation check. hdw->unit_number is initialized with -1 and then if init table walk fails this value
    remains unchanged. Since code blindly uses this member for array indexing adding sanity check is the
    easiest fix for that. hdw->workpoll initialization moved upper to prevent warning in __flush_work.
    (CVE-2022-49478)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/pm: fix double free in
    si_parse_power_table() In function si_parse_power_table(), array adev->pm.dpm.ps and its member is
    allocated. If the allocation of each member fails, the array itself is freed and returned with an error
    code. However, the array is later freed again in si_dpm_fini() function which is called when the function
    returns an error. This leads to potential double free of the array adev->pm.dpm.ps, as well as leak of its
    array members, since the members are not freed in the allocation function and the array is not nulled when
    freed. In addition adev->pm.dpm.num_ps, which keeps track of the allocated array member, is not updated
    until the member allocation is successfully finished, this could also lead to either use after free, or
    uninitialized variable access in si_dpm_fini(). Fix this by postponing the free of the array until
    si_dpm_fini() and increment adev->pm.dpm.num_ps everytime the array member is allocated. (CVE-2022-49530)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cifs: fix potential double free during
    failed mount RHBZ: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2088799 (CVE-2022-49541)

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