The remote Fedora 35 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2022-b36cd53dca advisory.

  • A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP). A missing lock when clearing sk_user_data can lead to a race condition and NULL pointer dereference. A local user could use this flaw to potentially crash the system causing a denial of service. (CVE-2022-4129)

  • Incorrect GPU TLB flush can lead to random memory access [fedora-all] (CVE-2022-4139)

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