The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6923-1 advisory.

    Benedict Schlter, Supraja Sridhara, Andrin Bertschi, and Shweta Shinde discovered that an untrusted     hypervisor could inject malicious #VC interrupts and compromise the security guarantees of AMD SEV-SNP.
    This flaw is known as WeSee. A local attacker in control of the hypervisor could use this to expose     sensitive information or possibly execute arbitrary code in the trusted execution environment.
    (CVE-2024-25742)

    Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to     compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems:

    - TTY drivers;

    - SMB network file system;

    - Netfilter;

    - Bluetooth subsystem; (CVE-2024-26886, CVE-2024-26952, CVE-2023-52752, CVE-2024-27017, CVE-2024-36016)
