The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6795-1 advisory.

    Zheng Wang discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC WLAN driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition     during device removal, leading to a use- after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could     possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-47233)

    It was discovered that the Open vSwitch implementation in the Linux kernel could overflow its stack during     recursive action operations under certain conditions. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of     service (system crash). (CVE-2024-1151)

    Sander Wiebing, Alvise de Faveri Tron, Herbert Bos, and Cristiano Giuffrida discovered that the Linux     kernel mitigations for the initial Branch History Injection vulnerability (CVE-2022-0001) were     insufficient for Intel processors. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive     information. (CVE-2024-2201)

    Chenyuan Yang discovered that the RDS Protocol implementation in the Linux kernel contained an out-of-     bounds read vulnerability. An attacker could use this to possibly cause a denial of service (system     crash). (CVE-2024-23849)
