"The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in
the USN-4465-1 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in xfs_agf_verify in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_alloc.c in the Linux kernel through 5.6.10.
    Attackers may trigger a sync of excessive duration via an XFS v5 image with crafted metadata, aka
    CID-d0c7feaf8767. (CVE-2020-12655)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.6.11. btree_gc_coalesce in drivers/md/bcache/btree.c
    has a deadlock if a coalescing operation fails. (CVE-2020-12771)

  - In the Linux kernel 4.4 through 5.7.6, usbtest_disconnect in drivers/usb/misc/usbtest.c has a memory leak,
    aka CID-28ebeb8db770. (CVE-2020-15393)

  - In the Linux kernel before 5.7.8, fs/nfsd/vfs.c (in the NFS server) can set incorrect permissions on new
    filesystem objects when the filesystem lacks ACL support, aka CID-22cf8419f131. This occurs because the
    current umask is not considered. (CVE-2020-24394)

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