  - A remote code execution vulnerability. An attacker can     exploit this to bypass authentication and execute     unauthorized arbitrary commands. (CVE-2022-26916,     CVE-2022-26812,CVE-2022-26919,CVE-2022-26918,CVE-2022-26813,     CVE-2022-26821,CVE-2022-26815,CVE-2022-26822,CVE-2022-26917,     CVE-2022-26829,CVE-2022-26820,CVE-2022-26809,CVE-2022-26819,     CVE-2022-24541,CVE-2022-24492,CVE-2022-24536,CVE-2022-24534,     CVE-2022-24485,CVE-2022-26903,CVE-2022-24528,CVE-2022-21983, 	CVE-2022-24500)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability. An attacker can     exploit this to gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2022-26797,     CVE-2022-26796,CVE-2022-26904,CVE-2022-26798,CVE-2022-26801,     CVE-2022-26802,CVE-2022-26810,CVE-2022-26792,CVE-2022-26794,     CVE-2022-26790,CVE-2022-24544,CVE-2022-24540,CVE-2022-24481,     CVE-2022-24527,CVE-2022-24474,CVE-2022-24521,CVE-2022-24499,     CVE-2022-24494,CVE-2022-24542,CVE-2022-24530)

  - A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability. An attacker can     exploit this issue to cause the affected component to     deny system or application services. (CVE-2022-26915,     CVE-2022-26831)
