  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tty: Fix out-of-bound vmalloc access
    in imageblit This issue happens when a userspace program does an ioctl FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO passing the
    fb_var_screeninfo struct containing only the fields xres, yres, and bits_per_pixel with values. If this
    struct is the same as the previous ioctl, the vc_resize() detects it and doesn't call the resize_screen(),
    leaving the fb_var_screeninfo incomplete. And this leads to the updatescrollmode() calculates a wrong
    value to fbcon_display->vrows, which makes the real_y() return a wrong value of y, and that value,
    eventually, causes the imageblit to access an out-of-bound address value. To solve this issue I made the
    resize_screen() be called even if the screen does not need any resizing, so it will fix and fill the
    fb_var_screeninfo independently. (CVE-2021-47383)

  - The IPv6 implementation in the Linux kernel before 6.3 has a net/ipv6/route.c max_size threshold that can
    be consumed easily, e.g., leading to a denial of service (network is unreachable errors) when IPv6 packets
    are sent in a loop via a raw socket. (CVE-2023-52340)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drivers/amd/pm: fix a use-after-free
    in kv_parse_power_table When ps allocated by kzalloc equals to NULL, kv_parse_power_table frees
    adev->pm.dpm.ps that allocated before. However, after the control flow goes through the following call
    chains: kv_parse_power_table |-> kv_dpm_init |-> kv_dpm_sw_init |-> kv_dpm_fini The adev->pm.dpm.ps is
    used in the for loop of kv_dpm_fini after its first free in kv_parse_power_table and causes a use-after-
    free bug. (CVE-2023-52469)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the __ext4_remount in fs/ext4/super.c in ext4 in the Linux kernel. This
    flaw allows a local user to cause an information leak problem while freeing the old quota file names
    before a potential failure, leading to a use-after-free. (CVE-2024-0775)

  - Integer Overflow or Wraparound vulnerability in Linux Linux kernel kernel on Linux, x86, ARM (md, raid,
    raid5 modules) allows Forced Integer Overflow. (CVE-2024-23307)

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