The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.15.54-25.126. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.15-2022-005 advisory.

    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)

    network backend may cause Linux netfront to use freed SKBs While adding logic to support XDP (eXpress Data     Path), a code label was moved in a way allowing for SKBs having references (pointers) retained for further     processing to nevertheless be freed. (CVE-2022-33743)

    A heap buffer overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Netfilter subsystem in the way a user provides     incorrect input of the NFT_DATA_VERDICT type. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially     escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-34918)
