A flaw was found in the VirGL virtual OpenGL renderer (virglrenderer). The virgl did not properly initialize memory when allocating a host-backed memory resource. A malicious guest could use this flaw to mmap from the guest kernel and read this uninitialized memory from the host, possibly leading to information disclosure.

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

  - A flaw was found in the VirGL virtual OpenGL renderer (virglrenderer). The virgl did not properly     initialize memory when allocating a host-backed memory resource. A malicious guest could use this flaw to     mmap from the guest kernel and read this uninitialized memory from the host, possibly leading to     information disclosure. (CVE-2022-0175)

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

The version of virglrenderer installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2022-0175 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in the VirGL virtual OpenGL renderer (virglrenderer). The virgl did not properly     initialize memory when allocating a host-backed memory resource. A malicious guest could use this flaw to     mmap from the guest kernel and read this uninitialized memory from the host, possibly leading to     information disclosure. (CVE-2022-0175)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202210-05 (virglrenderer: Multiple vulnerabilities)

  - An out-of-bounds write issue was found in the VirGL virtual OpenGL renderer (virglrenderer). This flaw     allows a malicious guest to create a specially crafted virgil resource and then issue a VIRTGPU_EXECBUFFER     ioctl, leading to a denial of service or possible code execution. (CVE-2022-0135)

  - A flaw was found in the VirGL virtual OpenGL renderer (virglrenderer). The virgl did not properly     initialize memory when allocating a host-backed memory resource. A malicious guest could use this flaw to     mmap from the guest kernel and read this uninitialized memory from the host, possibly leading to     information disclosure. (CVE-2022-0175)

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

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5309-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that virglrenderer incorrectly handled memory. An attacker inside a guest could use this     issue to cause virglrenderer to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2022-0135)

    It was discovered that virglrenderer incorrectly initialized memory. An attacker inside a guest could     possibly use this issue to obtain sensitive host information. (CVE-2022-0175)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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

The remote SUSE Linux SUSE15 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2022:0111-1 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in the VirGL virtual OpenGL renderer (virglrenderer). The virgl did not properly     initialize memory when allocating a host-backed memory resource. A malicious guest could use this flaw to     mmap from the guest kernel and read this uninitialized memory from the host, possibly leading to     information disclosure. (CVE-2022-0175)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SUSE- SU-2022:0111-1 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in the VirGL virtual OpenGL renderer (virglrenderer). The virgl did not properly     initialize memory when allocating a host-backed memory resource. A malicious guest could use this flaw to     mmap from the guest kernel and read this uninitialized memory from the host, possibly leading to     information disclosure. (CVE-2022-0175)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote SUSE Linux SLED12 / SLES12 / SLES_SAP12 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:0110-1 advisory.

  - A flaw was found in the VirGL virtual OpenGL renderer (virglrenderer). The virgl did not properly     initialize memory when allocating a host-backed memory resource. A malicious guest could use this flaw to     mmap from the guest kernel and read this uninitialized memory from the host, possibly leading to     information disclosure. (CVE-2022-0175)
