"The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as
referenced in the USN-6246-1 advisory.

  - A heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the Linux Kernel ipvlan network driver can be exploited to
    achieve local privilege escalation. The out-of-bounds write is caused by missing skb->cb initialization in
    the ipvlan network driver. The vulnerability is reachable if CONFIG_IPVLAN is enabled. We recommend
    upgrading past commit 90cbed5247439a966b645b34eb0a2e037836ea8e. (CVE-2023-3090)

  - Linux Kernel nftables Use-After-Free Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability; `nft_chain_lookup_byid()`
    failed to check whether a chain was active and CAP_NET_ADMIN is in any user or network namespace
    (CVE-2023-31248)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux Kernel io_uring subsystem can be exploited to achieve local
    privilege escalation. Racing a io_uring cancel poll request with a linked timeout can cause a UAF in a
    hrtimer. We recommend upgrading past commit ef7dfac51d8ed961b742218f526bd589f3900a59
    (4716c73b188566865bdd79c3a6709696a224ac04 for 5.10 stable and 0e388fce7aec40992eadee654193cad345d62663 for
    5.15 stable). (CVE-2023-3389)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's netfilter subsystem in
    net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c. Mishandled error handling with NFT_MSG_NEWRULE makes it possible to use a
    dangling pointer in the same transaction causing a use-after-free vulnerability. This flaw allows a local
    attacker with user access to cause a privilege escalation issue. We recommend upgrading past commit
    1240eb93f0616b21c675416516ff3d74798fdc97. (CVE-2023-3390)

  - A flaw was found in the MCTP protocol in the Linux kernel. The function mctp_unregister() reclaims the
    device's relevant resource when a netcard detaches. However, a running routine may be unaware of this and
    cause the use-after-free of the mdev->addrs object, potentially leading to a denial of service.
    (CVE-2023-3439)

  - Linux Kernel nftables Out-Of-Bounds Read/Write Vulnerability; nft_byteorder poorly handled vm register
    contents when CAP_NET_ADMIN is in any user or network namespace (CVE-2023-35001)

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