"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-6350-1 advisory.

  - In the Linux kernel through 6.2.7, fs/ntfs3/inode.c has an invalid kfree because it does not validate MFT
    flags before replaying logs. (CVE-2022-48425)

  - In multiple functions of binder.c, there is a possible memory corruption due to a use after free. This
    could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User
    interaction is not needed for exploitation. (CVE-2023-21255)

  - There is a null-pointer-dereference flaw found in f2fs_write_end_io in fs/f2fs/data.c in the Linux kernel.
    This flaw allows a local privileged user to cause a denial of service problem. (CVE-2023-2898)

  - An issue was discovered in drivers/media/dvb-core/dvb_frontend.c in the Linux kernel 6.2. There is a
    blocking operation when a task is in !TASK_RUNNING. In dvb_frontend_get_event, wait_event_interruptible is
    called; the condition is dvb_frontend_test_event(fepriv,events). In dvb_frontend_test_event,
    down(&fepriv->sem) is called. However, wait_event_interruptible would put the process to sleep, and
    down(&fepriv->sem) may block the process. (CVE-2023-31084)

  - A NULL pointer dereference issue was found in the gfs2 file system in the Linux kernel. It occurs on
    corrupt gfs2 file systems when the evict code tries to reference the journal descriptor structure after it
    has been freed and set to NULL. A privileged local user could use this flaw to cause a kernel panic.
    (CVE-2023-3212)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.3.4. ksmbd has an out-of-bounds read in
    smb2_find_context_vals when create_context's name_len is larger than the tag length. (CVE-2023-38426)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.3.4. fs/ksmbd/smb2pdu.c in ksmbd does not properly
    check the UserName value because it does not consider the address of security buffer, leading to an out-
    of-bounds read. (CVE-2023-38428)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.3.4. fs/ksmbd/connection.c in ksmbd has an off-by-one
    error in memory allocation (because of ksmbd_smb2_check_message) that may lead to out-of-bounds access.
    (CVE-2023-38429)

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