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

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

An update of the linux package has been released.

The version of kernel 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-2024-50299 advisory.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sctp: properly validate chunk size in     sctp_sf_ootb() A size validation fix similar to that in Commit 50619dbf8db7 (sctp: add size validation     when walking chunks) is also required in sctp_sf_ootb() to address a crash reported by syzbot: BUG:

The remote CentOS Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the kernel-5.14.0-539.el9 build changelog.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ntb: intel: Fix the NULL vs IS_ERR()     bug for debugfs_create_dir() The debugfs_create_dir() function returns error pointers. It never returns     NULL. So use IS_ERR() to check it. (CVE-2023-52917)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: MGMT: Fix possible crash on     mgmt_index_removed If mgmt_index_removed is called while there are commands queued on cmd_sync it could     lead to crashes like the bellow trace: 0x0000053D: __list_del_entry_valid_or_report+0x98/0xdc 0x0000053D:

    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that     may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information     leaks.

    For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in     version 6.1.119-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux packages.
