The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: core: Fix assumption that     Resolution Multipliers must be in Logical Collections A report in 2019 by the syzbot fuzzer was found to     be connected to two errors in the HID core associated with Resolution Multipliers. One of the errors was     fixed by commit ea427a222d8b (HID: core: Fix deadloop in hid_apply_multiplier.), but the other has not     been fixed. This error arises because hid_apply_multipler() assumes that every Resolution Multiplier     control is contained in a Logical Collection, i.e., there's no way the routine can ever set     multiplier_collection to NULL. This is in spite of the fact that the function starts with a big comment     saying: * The Resolution Multiplier control must be contained in the same * Logical Collection as the     control(s) to which it is to be applied. ... * If no Logical Collection is * defined, the Resolution     Multiplier is associated with all * controls in the report. * HID Usage Table, v1.12, Section 4.3.1, p30
    * * Thus, search from the current collection upwards until we find a * logical collection... The comment     and the code overlook the possibility that none of the collections found may be a Logical Collection. The     fix is to set the multiplier_collection pointer to NULL if the collection found isn't a Logical     Collection. (CVE-2024-57986)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

An update of the linux package has been released.

The remote Debian 11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-4102 advisory.

    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that     may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information     leaks.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version     6.1.129-1~deb11u1.  This additionally includes many more bug fixes     from stable update 6.1.129, and a fix for a regression affecting some     Rockchip SoCs.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux-6.1 packages.

    For the detailed security status of linux-6.1 please refer to     its security tracker page at:
