low Nessus Plugin ID 216275

Synopsis

The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.06, has kernel packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability:

- A flaw was found in the Linux Kernel. The tls_is_tx_ready() incorrectly checks for list emptiness, potentially accessing a type confused entry to the list_head, leaking the last byte of the confused field that overlaps with rec->tx_ready. (CVE-2023-1075)

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