The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - kernel: out of bounds read in drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb/technisat-usb2.c (CVE-2019-15505)

  - kernel: buffer-overflow hardening in WiFi beacon validation code. (CVE-2019-16746)

  - block/scsi_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel through 3.8 does not properly consider the SCSI device class during     authorization of SCSI commands, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions via an     SG_IO ioctl call that leverages overlapping opcodes. (CVE-2012-4542)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

New kernel packages are available for Slackware 14.2 to fix a security issue.

CVE-2017-0605 was deemed 'Rejected', and withdrawn from the NIST database as further investigation showed that it was not a true security risk.

This plugin has been deprecated as it does not adhere to established standards for this style of check.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - kernel: Buffer overflow due to unbounded strcpy in ISDN I4L driver (CVE-2017-12762)

  - kernel: buffer-overflow hardening in WiFi beacon validation code. (CVE-2019-16746)

  - include/linux/init_task.h in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35 does not prevent signals with a process group     ID of zero from reaching the swapper process, which allows local users to cause a denial of service     (system crash) by leveraging access to this process group. (CVE-2010-5328)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.
