"The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in
the USN-6628-2 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ksmbd, a high-performance in-kernel SMB server. The specific flaw
    exists within the processing of SMB2_SESSION_SETUP commands. The issue results from the lack of proper
    locking when performing operations on an object. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute
    code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2023-32250)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ksmbd, a high-performance in-kernel SMB server. The specific flaw
    exists within the handling of SMB2_LOGOFF commands. The issue results from the lack of proper validation
    of a pointer prior to accessing it. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to create a denial-of-
    service condition on the system. (CVE-2023-32252)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ksmbd, a high-performance in-kernel SMB server. The specific flaw
    exists within the processing of SMB2_SESSION_SETUP and SMB2_LOGOFF commands. The issue results from the
    lack of proper locking when performing operations on an object. An attacker can leverage this
    vulnerability to execute code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2023-32257)

  - Closing of an event channel in the Linux kernel can result in a deadlock. This happens when the close is
    being performed in parallel to an unrelated Xen console action and the handling of a Xen console interrupt
    in an unprivileged guest. The closing of an event channel is e.g. triggered by removal of a paravirtual
    device on the other side. As this action will cause console messages to be issued on the other side quite
    often, the chance of triggering the deadlock is not neglectable. Note that 32-bit Arm-guests are not
    affected, as the 32-bit Linux kernel on Arm doesn't use queued-RW-locks, which are required to trigger the
    issue (on Arm32 a waiting writer doesn't block further readers to get the lock). (CVE-2023-34324)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 6.3.8. A use-after-free was found in ravb_remove in
    drivers/net/ethernet/renesas/ravb_main.c. (CVE-2023-35827)

  - An out-of-bounds access vulnerability involving netfilter was reported and fixed as: f1082dd31fe4
    (netfilter: nf_tables: Reject tables of unsupported family); While creating a new netfilter table, lack of
    a safeguard against invalid nf_tables family (pf) values within `nf_tables_newtable` function enables an
    attacker to achieve out-of-bounds access. (CVE-2023-6040)

  - A null pointer dereference vulnerability was found in nft_dynset_init() in net/netfilter/nft_dynset.c in
    nf_tables in the Linux kernel. This issue may allow a local attacker with CAP_NET_ADMIN user privilege to
    trigger a denial of service. (CVE-2023-6622)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's ipv4: igmp component can be exploited to achieve
    local privilege escalation. A race condition can be exploited to cause a timer be mistakenly registered on
    a RCU read locked object which is freed by another thread. We recommend upgrading past commit
    e2b706c691905fe78468c361aaabc719d0a496f1. (CVE-2023-6932)

  - A denial of service vulnerability was found in tipc_crypto_key_revoke in net/tipc/crypto.c in the Linux
    kernel's TIPC subsystem. This flaw allows guests with local user privileges to trigger a deadlock and
    potentially crash the system. (CVE-2024-0641)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.5.9, exploitable by local users with userspace access
    to MMIO registers. Incorrect access checking in the #VC handler and instruction emulation of the SEV-ES
    emulation of MMIO accesses could lead to arbitrary write access to kernel memory (and thus privilege
    escalation). This depends on a race condition through which userspace can replace an instruction before
    the #VC handler reads it. (CVE-2023-46813)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in lan78xx_disconnect in drivers/net/usb/lan78xx.c in the network sub-
    component, net/usb/lan78xx in the Linux Kernel. This flaw allows a local attacker to crash the system when
    the LAN78XX USB device detaches. (CVE-2023-6039)

  - A null pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel API for the cryptographic algorithm
    scatterwalk functionality. This issue occurs when a user constructs a malicious packet with specific
    socket configuration, which could allow a local user to crash the system or escalate their privileges on
    the system. (CVE-2023-6176)

  - An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in smbCalcSize in fs/smb/client/netmisc.c in the Linux
    Kernel. This issue could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak internal kernel information.
    (CVE-2023-6606)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's netfilter: nf_tables component can be exploited to
    achieve local privilege escalation. The function nft_pipapo_walk did not skip inactive elements during set
    walk which could lead double deactivations of PIPAPO (Pile Packet Policies) elements, leading to use-
    after-free. We recommend upgrading past commit 317eb9685095678f2c9f5a8189de698c5354316a. (CVE-2023-6817)

  - A heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Performance Events system component can be
    exploited to achieve local privilege escalation. A perf_event's read_size can overflow, leading to an heap
    out-of-bounds increment or write in perf_read_group(). We recommend upgrading past commit
    382c27f4ed28f803b1f1473ac2d8db0afc795a1b. (CVE-2023-6931)

  - A use-after-free flaw was found in the netfilter subsystem of the Linux kernel. If the catchall element is
    garbage-collected when the pipapo set is removed, the element can be deactivated twice. This can cause a
    use-after-free issue on an NFT_CHAIN object or NFT_OBJECT object, allowing a local unprivileged user with
    CAP_NET_ADMIN capability to escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2024-0193)
