The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 4.14.287-215.504. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2022-1825 advisory.

    There are use-after-free vulnerabilities caused by timer handler in net/rose/rose_timer.c of linux that     allow attackers to crash linux kernel without any privileges. (CVE-2022-2318)

    Linux disk/nic frontends data leaks T[his CNA information record relates to multiple CVEs; the text     explains which aspects/vulnerabilities correspond to which CVE.] Linux Block and Network PV device     frontends don't zero memory regions before sharing them with the backend (CVE-2022-26365, CVE-2022-33740).
    Additionally the granularity of the grant table doesn't allow sharing less than a 4K page, leading to     unrelated data residing in the same 4K page as data shared with a backend being accessible by such backend     (CVE-2022-33741, CVE-2022-33742). (CVE-2022-26365)

    Arm guests can cause Dom0 DoS via PV devices When mapping pages of guests on Arm, dom0 is using an rbtree     to keep track of the foreign mappings. Updating of that rbtree is not always done completely with the     related lock held, resulting in a small race window, which can be used by unprivileged guests via PV     devices to cause inconsistencies of the rbtree. These inconsistencies can lead to Denial of Service (DoS)     of dom0, e.g. by causing crashes or the inability to perform further mappings of other guests' memory     pages. (CVE-2022-33744)
