According to the versions of the edk2 package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

    An attacker with the ability to modify physical memory can control the value of AcpiS3ResumeRecord-     ResumeCount. If the attacker sets the value of ResumeCount to MAX_UINT32 (0xFFFFFFFF), and ResumeCount     is subsequently incremented, its new value will be 0 (due to UINT32 overflow). Since there is no check for     overflow, when ResumeCount is 0 and passed as the second argument to DivU64x32(), it will trigger a     division by 0, and cause a system crash, leading to a DoS.(CVE-2024-1298)
