"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: don't allow journal inode to
    have encrypt flag Mounting a filesystem whose journal inode has the encrypt flag causes a NULL dereference
    in fscrypt_limit_io_blocks() when the 'inlinecrypt' mount option is used. The problem is that when
    jbd2_journal_init_inode() calls bmap(), it eventually finds its way into ext4_iomap_begin(), which calls
    fscrypt_limit_io_blocks(). fscrypt_limit_io_blocks() requires that if the inode is encrypted, then its
    encryption key must already be set up. That's not the case here, since the journal inode is never opened
    like a normal file would be. Hence the crash. A reproducer is: mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/vdb debugfs -w /dev/vdb
    -R set_inode_field <8> flags 0x80808 mount /dev/vdb /mnt -o inlinecrypt To fix this, make ext4 consider
    journal inodes with the encrypt flag to be invalid. (Note, maybe other flags should be rejected on the
    journal inode too. For now, this is just the minimal fix for the above issue.) I've marked this as fixing
    the commit that introduced the call to fscrypt_limit_io_blocks(), since that's what made an actual crash
    start being possible. But this fix could be applied to any version of ext4 that supports the encrypt
    feature. (CVE-2022-50277)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
