"The CentOS Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
TuxCare CENTOS7:CLSA-2026:1787291758 advisory.
- The bpf verifier in the Linux kernel did not properly handle mod32 destination register truncation when
the source register was known to be 0. A local attacker with the ability to load bpf programs could use
this gain out-of-bounds reads in kernel memory leading to information disclosure (kernel memory), and
possibly out-of-bounds writes that could potentially lead to code execution. This issue was addressed in
the upstream kernel in commit 9b00f1b78809 (bpf: Fix truncation handling for mod32 dst reg wrt zero) and
in Linux stable kernels 5.11.2, 5.10.19, and 5.4.101. (CVE-2021-3444)
- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sctp: don't free the ASCONF's own
transport in DEL-IP processing sctp_process_asconf() caches the transport the ASCONF chunk is processed
against in asconf->transport (== chunk->transport, set once in sctp_rcv()). For an ASCONF located through
its Address Parameter by __sctp_rcv_asconf_lookup(), that cached transport corresponds to the Address
Parameter, which need not be the packet's source address. sctp_process_asconf_param() rejects a DEL-IP for
the packet source address (ADDIP D8, SCTP_ERROR_DEL_SRC_IP), but nothing protects asconf->transport. A
single ASCONF can therefore carry, in order: [Address Parameter L] [DEL-IP L] [DEL-IP 0.0.0.0] where L
differs from the source. The DEL-IP for L passes the D8 check and calls sctp_assoc_rm_peer() on the
transport that asconf->transport still points at, freeing it (RCU-deferred). The following wildcard DEL-IP
then reuses the now-dangling asconf->transport in sctp_assoc_set_primary() and
sctp_assoc_del_nonprimary_peers(): set_primary() dereferences the freed transport (->ipaddr, ->state) and
plants the dangling pointer into asoc->peer.primary_path / active_path, and del_nonprimary_peers(),
keeping only the pointer that is no longer on the list, removes every real transport, leaving the
association with a transport_count of 0 and primary_path/active_path pointing at freed memory. Reject a
DEL-IP that targets the transport the ASCONF is being processed against, mirroring the existing source-
address guard, so the wildcard branch can never reuse a freed transport. (CVE-2026-64564)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
