"The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in
the USN-4388-1 advisory.

  - In f2fs_xattr_generic_list of xattr.c, there is a possible out of bounds read due to a missing bounds
    check. This could lead to local information disclosure with System execution privileges needed. User
    interaction is not required for exploitation.Product: Android. Versions: Android kernel. Android ID:
    A-120551147. (CVE-2020-0067)

  - Incomplete cleanup from specific special register read operations in some Intel(R) Processors may allow an
    authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2020-0543)

  - A pivot_root race condition in fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel 4.4.x before 4.4.221, 4.9.x before
    4.9.221, 4.14.x before 4.14.178, 4.19.x before 4.19.119, and 5.x before 5.3 allows local users to cause a
    denial of service (panic) by corrupting a mountpoint reference counter. (CVE-2020-12114)

  - usb_sg_cancel in drivers/usb/core/message.c in the Linux kernel before 5.6.8 has a use-after-free because
    a transfer occurs without a reference, aka CID-056ad39ee925. (CVE-2020-12464)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.6.7. xdp_umem_reg in net/xdp/xdp_umem.c has an out-
    of-bounds write (by a user with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability) because of a lack of headroom validation.
    (CVE-2020-12659)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of some networking protocols in IPsec, such as VXLAN
    and GENEVE tunnels over IPv6. When an encrypted tunnel is created between two hosts, the kernel isn't
    correctly routing tunneled data over the encrypted link; rather sending the data unencrypted. This would
    allow anyone in between the two endpoints to read the traffic unencrypted. The main threat from this
    vulnerability is to data confidentiality. (CVE-2020-1749)

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