It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2023-2024-626 advisory.

    If kernel headers need to be extracted, bcc will attempt to load them from a temporary directory. An     unprivileged attacker could use this to force bcc to load compromised linux headers. Linux distributions     which provide kernel headers by default are not affected by default. (CVE-2024-2314)

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

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

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RHSA-2024:8831 advisory.

    BPF Compiler Collection (BCC) is a toolkit for easier creation of efficient kernel tracing and     manipulation programs. BCC uses the extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) tool.

    Security Fix(es):

    * bcc: unprivileged users can force loading of compromised linux headers (CVE-2024-2314)
