The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 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.

  - hw: Intel SGX information leak (CVE-2019-0117)

  - Improper conditions check in the voltage modulation interface for some Intel(R) Xeon(R) Scalable     Processors may allow a privileged user to potentially enable denial of service via local access.
    (CVE-2019-11139)

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

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 4.06, has microcode_ctl packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - Insufficient access control in protected memory subsystem for Intel(R) SGX for 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th     Generation Intel(R) Core(TM) Processor Families; Intel(R) Xeon(R) Processor E3-1500 v5, v6 Families;
    Intel(R) Xeon(R) E-2100 & E-2200 Processor Families with Intel(R) Processor Graphics may allow a     privileged user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2019-0117)

  - Cleanup errors in some Intel(R) Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable     information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2020-0548)

  - Cleanup errors in some data cache evictions for some Intel(R) Processors may allow an authenticated user     to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2020-0549)

  - Improper removal of sensitive information before storage or transfer in some Intel(R) Processors may allow     an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2020-8696)

  - Improper isolation of shared resources in some Intel(R) Processors may allow an authenticated user to     potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2020-8698)

  - Incomplete cleanup from specific special register read operations in some Intel(R) Processors may allow an     authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2020-0543)

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