"The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in
the USN-3697-2 advisory.

  - Linux kernel before version 4.16-rc7 is vulnerable to a null pointer dereference in dccp_write_xmit()
    function in net/dccp/output.c in that allows a local user to cause a denial of service by a number of
    certain crafted system calls. (CVE-2018-1130)

  - The compat_get_timex function in kernel/compat.c in the Linux kernel before 4.16.9 allows local users to
    obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via adjtimex. (CVE-2018-11508)

  - The acpi_smbus_hc_add function in drivers/acpi/sbshc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.14.15 allows local
    users to obtain sensitive address information by reading dmesg data from an SBS HC printk call.
    (CVE-2018-5750)

  - In the Linux Kernel before version 4.15.8, 4.14.25, 4.9.87, 4.4.121, 4.1.51, and 3.2.102, an error in the
    _sctp_make_chunk() function (net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c) when handling SCTP packets length can be
    exploited to cause a kernel crash. (CVE-2018-5803)

  - The futex_requeue function in kernel/futex.c in the Linux kernel before 4.14.15 might allow attackers to
    cause a denial of service (integer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a
    negative wake or requeue value. (CVE-2018-6927)

  - An issue was discovered in the fd_locked_ioctl function in drivers/block/floppy.c in the Linux kernel
    through 4.15.7. The floppy driver will copy a kernel pointer to user memory in response to the FDGETPRM
    ioctl. An attacker can send the FDGETPRM ioctl and use the obtained kernel pointer to discover the
    location of kernel code and data and bypass kernel security protections such as KASLR. (CVE-2018-7755)

  - Memory leak in the sas_smp_get_phy_events function in drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c in the Linux
    kernel through 4.15.7 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via many read
    accesses to files in the /sys/class/sas_phy directory, as demonstrated by the
    /sys/class/sas_phy/phy-1:0:12/invalid_dword_count file. (CVE-2018-7757)

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