The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.10.130-118.517. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.10-2022-018 advisory.

    An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in the Linux kernel's framebuffer-based console driver     functionality in the way a user triggers ioctl FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO with malicious data. This flaw allows a     local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2021-33655)

    There are use-after-free vulnerabilities caused by timer handler in net/rose/rose_timer.c of linux that     allow attackers to crash linux kernel without any privileges. (CVE-2022-2318)

    Linux disk/nic frontends data leaks T[his CNA information record relates to multiple CVEs; the text     explains which aspects/vulnerabilities correspond to which CVE.] Linux Block and Network PV device     frontends don't zero memory regions before sharing them with the backend (CVE-2022-26365, CVE-2022-33740).
    Additionally the granularity of the grant table doesn't allow sharing less than a 4K page, leading to     unrelated data residing in the same 4K page as data shared with a backend being accessible by such backend     (CVE-2022-33741, CVE-2022-33742). (CVE-2022-26365)

    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)

    Arm guests can cause Dom0 DoS via PV devices When mapping pages of guests on Arm, dom0 is using an rbtree     to keep track of the foreign mappings. Updating of that rbtree is not always done completely with the     related lock held, resulting in a small race window, which can be used by unprivileged guests via PV     devices to cause inconsistencies of the rbtree. These inconsistencies can lead to Denial of Service (DoS)     of dom0, e.g. by causing crashes or the inability to perform further mappings of other guests' memory     pages. (CVE-2022-33744)

    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)

But this function is not guaranteed the work is the last queued. So, the     destroyed instance may be accessed in the work which will try to enqueue later. In order to completely     fix, we re-order the calling of cancel_work_sync() to make sure the work tipc_net_finalize_work() was last     queued and it must be completed by calling cancel_work_sync().
