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-7144-1 advisory.

    Supraja Sridhara, Benedict Schlter, Mark Kuhne, Andrin Bertschi, and Shweta Shinde discovered that the     Confidential Computing framework in the Linux kernel for x86 platforms did not properly handle 32-bit     emulation on TDX and SEV. An attacker with access to the VMM could use this to cause a denial of service     (guest crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-25744)
