"The CentOS Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
TuxCare CENTOS6:CLSA-2025:1758010245 advisory.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sch_hfsc: make hfsc_qlen_notify()
    idempotent hfsc_qlen_notify() is not idempotent either and not friendly to its callers, like
    fq_codel_dequeue(). Let's make it idempotent to ease qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog() callers' life: 1.
    update_vf() decreases cl->cl_nactive, so we can check whether it is non-zero before calling it. 2.
    eltree_remove() always removes RB node cl->el_node, but we can use RB_EMPTY_NODE() + RB_CLEAR_NODE() to
    make it safe. (CVE-2025-38177)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: atm: fix /proc/net/atm/lec
    handling /proc/net/atm/lec must ensure safety against dev_lec[] changes. It appears it had dev_put() calls
    without prior dev_hold(), leading to imbalance and UAF. (CVE-2025-38180)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: posix-cpu-timers: fix race between
    handle_posix_cpu_timers() and posix_cpu_timer_del() If an exiting non-autoreaping task has already passed
    exit_notify() and calls handle_posix_cpu_timers() from IRQ, it can be reaped by its parent or debugger
    right after unlock_task_sighand(). If a concurrent posix_cpu_timer_del() runs at that moment, it won't be
    able to detect timer->it.cpu.firing != 0: cpu_timer_task_rcu() and/or lock_task_sighand() will fail. Add
    the tsk->exit_state check into run_posix_cpu_timers() to fix this. This fix is not needed if
    CONFIG_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK=y, because exit_task_work() is called before exit_notify(). But the
    check still makes sense, task_work_add(&tsk->posix_cputimers_work.work) will fail anyway in this case.
    (CVE-2025-38352)

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