The remote Debian 9 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-2718 advisory.

  • Incomplete cleanup in some Intel® VT-d products may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. (CVE-2020-24489)

  • Improper isolation of shared resources in some Intel® Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2020-24511)

  • Observable timing discrepancy in some Intel® Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2020-24512)

  • Domain-bypass transient execution vulnerability in some Intel Atom® Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2020-24513)

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