The remote SUSE Linux SLES12 / SLES_SAP12 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:3274-1 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.16.11. The mixed IPID assignment method with the     hash-based IPID assignment policy allows an off-path attacker to inject data into a victim's TCP session     or terminate that session. (CVE-2020-36516)

  - A race condition in the Linux kernel before 5.6.2 between the VT_DISALLOCATE ioctl and closing/opening of     ttys could lead to a use-after-free. (CVE-2020-36557)

  - A race condition in the Linux kernel before 5.5.7 involving VT_RESIZEX could lead to a NULL pointer     dereference and general protection fault. (CVE-2020-36558)

  - A use-after-free read flaw was found in sock_getsockopt() in net/core/sock.c due to SO_PEERCRED and     SO_PEERGROUPS race with listen() (and connect()) in the Linux kernel. In this flaw, an attacker with a     user privileges may crash the system or leak internal kernel information. (CVE-2021-4203)

  - In various methods of kernel base drivers, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a heap buffer     overflow. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User     interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID:
    A-182388481References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2022-20166)

  - Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID: A-224546354References: Upstream kernel     (CVE-2022-20368)

  - In v4l2_m2m_querybuf of v4l2-mem2mem.c, there is a possible out of bounds write due to improper input     validation. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User     interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID:
    A-223375145References: Upstream kernel (CVE-2022-20369)

  - A flaw in net_rds_alloc_sgs() in Oracle Linux kernels allows unprivileged local users to crash the     machine. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 6.2 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector     (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) (CVE-2022-21385)

  - kernel: a use-after-free in cls_route filter implementation may lead to privilege escalation     (CVE-2022-2588)

  - Non-transparent sharing of return predictor targets between contexts in some Intel(R) Processors may allow     an authorized user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2022-26373)

  - An integer coercion error was found in the openvswitch kernel module. Given a sufficiently large number of     actions, while copying and reserving memory for a new action of a new flow, the reserve_sfa_size()     function does not return -EMSGSIZE as expected, potentially leading to an out-of-bounds write access. This     flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-2639)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel implementation of proxied virtualized TPM devices. On a system where     virtualized TPM devices are configured (this is not the default) a local attacker can create a use-after-     free and create a situation where it may be possible to escalate privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-2977)

  - A race condition was found in the Linux kernel's IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem)     when multiple calls to xfrm_probe_algs occurred simultaneously. This flaw could allow a local attacker to     potentially trigger an out-of-bounds write or leak kernel heap memory by performing an out-of-bounds read     and copying it into a socket. (CVE-2022-3028)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14. xfrm_expand_policies in     net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c can cause a refcount to be dropped twice. (CVE-2022-36879)

  - nfqnl_mangle in net/netfilter/nfnetlink_queue.c in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14 allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) because, in the case of an nf_queue verdict with a one-byte     nfta_payload attribute, an skb_pull can encounter a negative skb->len. (CVE-2022-36946)

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