    It was discovered that the ST21NFCA NFC driver in the Linux kernel did not properly validate the size of     certain data in EVT_TRANSACTION events. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial     of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-26490)

    It was discovered that the USB SR9700 ethernet device driver for the Linux kernel did not properly     validate the length of requests from the device. A physically proximate attacker could possibly use this     to expose sensitive information (kernel memory). (CVE-2022-26966)

    It was discovered that the Xilinx USB2 device gadget driver in the Linux kernel did not properly validate     endpoint indices from the host. A physically proximate attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial     of service (system crash). (CVE-2022-27223)

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:1676-1 advisory.

  - A use after free in the Linux kernel infiniband hfi1 driver in versions prior to 5.10-rc6 was found in the     way user calls Ioctl after open dev file and fork. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system.
    (CVE-2020-27835)

  - In dma_buf_release of dma-buf.c, there is a possible memory corruption due to a use after free. This could     lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is     not needed for exploitation.Product: AndroidVersions: Android kernelAndroid ID: A-155756045References:
    Upstream kernel (CVE-2021-0707)

  - There is a flaw reported in the Linux kernel in versions before 5.9 in     drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_sgdma.c in nouveau_sgdma_create_ttm in Nouveau DRM subsystem. The issue     results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the     object. An attacker with a local account with a root privilege, can leverage this vulnerability to     escalate privileges and execute code in the context of the kernel. (CVE-2021-20292)

  - A race condition accessing file object in the Linux kernel OverlayFS subsystem was found in the way users     do rename in specific way with OverlayFS. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system.

    network backend may cause Linux netfront to use freed SKBs While adding logic to support XDP (eXpress Data     Path), a code label was moved in a way allowing for SKBs having references (pointers) retained for further     processing to nevertheless be freed. (CVE-2022-33743)

    rpmsg_virtio_add_ctrl_dev in drivers/rpmsg/virtio_rpmsg_bus.c in the Linux kernel before 5.18.4 has a     double free. (CVE-2022-34494)

    rpmsg_probe in drivers/rpmsg/virtio_rpmsg_bus.c in the Linux kernel before 5.18.4 has a double free.
    (CVE-2022-34495)

    A heap buffer overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Netfilter subsystem in the way a user provides     incorrect input of the NFT_DATA_VERDICT type. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially     escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2022-34918)

    A memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel's XEN hypervisor for the virtual machine. This flaw     allows a local user to crash the system or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.
    (CVE-2022-36123)

    An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14. xfrm_expand_policies in     net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c can cause a refcount to be dropped twice. (CVE-2022-36879)

    A memory corruption flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Netfilter subsystem in the way a local user uses     the libnetfilter_queue when analyzing a corrupted network packet. This flaw allows a local user to crash     the system or a remote user to crash the system when the libnetfilter_queue is used by a local user.
    (CVE-2022-36946)

    A flaw was found in the x86 KVM subsystem in kvm_steal_time_set_preempted in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the     Linux kernel. Unprivileged guest users can compromise the guest kernel because TLB flush operations are     mishandled in certain KVM_VCPU_PREEMPTED situations. (CVE-2022-39189)

    An issue was discovered in net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c in the Linux kernel before 5.19.6. A denial of     service can occur upon binding to an already bound chain. (CVE-2022-39190)

    An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.19. In pxa3xx_gcu_write in     drivers/video/fbdev/pxa3xx-gcu.c, the count parameter has a type conflict of size_t versus int, causing an     integer overflow and bypassing the size check. After that, because it is used as the third argument to     copy_from_user(), a heap overflow may occur. (CVE-2022-39842)

    A race condition in the Linux kernel's EFI capsule loader driver was found in the way it handled write and     flush operations on the device node of the EFI capsule. A local user could potentially use this flaw to     crash the system. (CVE-2022-40307)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

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

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-2022-29156 advisory.

  - drivers/infiniband/ulp/rtrs/rtrs-clt.c in the Linux kernel before 5.16.12 has a double free related to     rtrs_clt_dev_release. (CVE-2022-29156)

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

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2022-2022-042 advisory.

    A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in linux/net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c of the netfilter subsystem.
    This flaw allows a local user to cause an out-of-bounds write issue. (CVE-2022-1015)

    A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in net/netfilter/nf_tables_core.c:nft_do_chain, which can cause a     use-after-free. This issue needs to handle return with proper preconditions, as it can lead to a kernel     information leak problem caused by a local, unprivileged attacker. (CVE-2022-1016)

    An out-of-bounds (OOB) memory access flaw was found in nft_fwd_dup_netdev_offload in     net/netfilter/nf_dup_netdev.c in the netfilter subcomponent in the Linux kernel due to a heap out-of-     bounds write problem. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user account on the system to gain access     to out-of-bounds memory, leading to a system crash or a privilege escalation threat. (CVE-2022-25636)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.
