The remote SUSE Linux SLES12 / SLES_SAP12 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:3584-1 advisory.

  - In mmc_blk_read_single of block.c, there is a possible way to read kernel heap memory due to uninitialized     data. This could lead to local information disclosure if reading from an SD card that triggers errors,     with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.Product:

  - Dm-verity is used for extending root-of-trust to root filesystems. LoadPin builds on this property to     restrict module/firmware loads to just the trusted root filesystem. Device-mapper table reloads currently     allow users with root privileges to switch out the target with an equivalent dm-linear target and bypass     verification till reboot. This allows root to bypass LoadPin and can be used to load untrusted and     unverified kernel modules and firmware, which implies arbitrary kernel execution and persistence for     peripherals that do not verify firmware updates. We recommend upgrading past commit     4caae58406f8ceb741603eee460d79bacca9b1b5 (CVE-2022-2503)

  - An issue was found in the Linux kernel in nf_conntrack_irc where the message handling can be confused and     incorrectly matches the message. A firewall may be able to be bypassed when users are using unencrypted     IRC with nf_conntrack_irc configured. (CVE-2022-2663)

  - A flaw use after free in the Linux kernel video4linux driver was found in the way user triggers     em28xx_usb_probe() for the Empia 28xx based TV cards. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system     or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-3239)

  - A race condition flaw was found in the Linux kernel sound subsystem due to improper locking. It could lead     to a NULL pointer dereference while handling the SNDCTL_DSP_SYNC ioctl. A privileged local user (root or     member of the audio group) could use this flaw to crash the system, resulting in a denial of service     condition (CVE-2022-3303)

  - An issue was discovered in include/asm-generic/tlb.h in the Linux kernel before 5.19. Because of a race     condition (unmap_mapping_range versus munmap), a device driver can free a page while it still has stale     TLB entries. This only occurs in situations with VM_PFNMAP VMAs. (CVE-2022-39188)

  - In drivers/media/dvb-core/dmxdev.c in the Linux kernel through 5.19.10, there is a use-after-free caused     by refcount races, affecting dvb_demux_open and dvb_dmxdev_release. (CVE-2022-41218)

  - drivers/char/pcmcia/synclink_cs.c in the Linux kernel through 5.19.12 has a race condition and resultant     use-after-free if a physically proximate attacker removes a PCMCIA device while calling ioctl, aka a race     condition between mgslpc_ioctl and mgslpc_detach. (CVE-2022-41848)

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