CBL Mariner 2.0 Security Update: kernel (CVE-2024-56785)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 232421

Synopsis

The remote CBL Mariner host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of kernel installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2024-56785 advisory.

 - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: MIPS: Loongson64: DTS: Really fix PCIe port nodes for ls7a Fix the dtc warnings: arch/mips/boot/dts/loongson/ls7a-pch.dtsi:68.16-416.5: Warning (interrupt_provider): /bus@10000000/pci@1a000000: '#interrupt-cells' found, but node is not an interrupt provider arch/mips/boot/dts/loongson/ls7a-pch.dtsi:68.16-416.5: Warning (interrupt_provider):
 /bus@10000000/pci@1a000000: '#interrupt-cells' found, but node is not an interrupt provider arch/mips/boot/dts/loongson/loongson64g_4core_ls7a.dtb: Warning (interrupt_map): Failed prerequisite 'interrupt_provider' And a runtime warning introduced in commit 045b14ca5c36 (of: WARN on deprecated #address-cells/#size-cells handling): WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at drivers/of/base.c:106 of_bus_n_addr_cells+0x9c/0xe0 Missing '#address-cells' in /bus@10000000/pci@1a000000/pci_bridge@9,0 The fix is similar to commit d89a415ff8d5 (MIPS: Loongson64: DTS: Fix PCIe port nodes for ls7a), which has fixed the issue for ls2k (despite its subject mentions ls7a). (CVE-2024-56785)

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