    It was discovered that a memory leak existed in the SCTP protocol implementation in the Linux kernel. A     local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion). (CVE-2023-1074)

    It was discovered that the TLS subsystem in the Linux kernel contained a type confusion vulnerability in     some situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly     expose sensitive information. (CVE-2023-1075)

    It was discovered that the Reliable Datagram Sockets (RDS) protocol implementation in the Linux kernel     contained a type confusion vulnerability in some situations. An attacker could use this to cause a denial     of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-1078)

    Xingyuan Mo discovered that the x86 KVM implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize     some data structures. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information (kernel memory).
    (CVE-2023-1513)

    It was discovered that the NFS implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle pending tasks in     some situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or expose     sensitive information (kernel memory). (CVE-2023-1652)

    It was discovered that the ARM64 EFI runtime services implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly     manage concurrency calls. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or     possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-21102)

    It was discovered that a race condition existed in Adreno GPU DRM driver in the Linux kernel, leading to a     double-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).
    (CVE-2023-21106)

    It was discovered that a use-after-free vulnerability existed in the iSCSI TCP implementation in the Linux     kernel. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).
    (CVE-2023-2162)

    Kyle Zeng discovered that the class-based queuing discipline implementation in the Linux kernel contained     a type confusion vulnerability in some situations. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service     (system crash). (CVE-2023-23454)

    Kyle Zeng discovered that the ATM VC queuing discipline implementation in the Linux kernel contained a     type confusion vulnerability in some situations. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service     (system crash). (CVE-2023-23455)

    It was discovered that the NTFS file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate     the size of attributes when parsing MFT. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of     service (system crash) or expose sensitive information (kernel memory). (CVE-2023-26544)

    It was discovered that the NET/ROM protocol implementation in the Linux kernel contained a race condition     in some situations, leading to a use- after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a     denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-32269)

    Duoming Zhou discovered that a race condition existed in the infrared receiver/transceiver driver in the     Linux kernel, leading to a use-after- free vulnerability. A privileged attacker could use this to cause a     denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-1118)

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

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