The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 4.05, has libvirt packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:
An industry-wide issue was found in the way many modern microprocessor designs have implemented speculative execution of Load & Store instructions (a commonly used performance optimization). It relies on the presence of a precisely-defined instruction sequence in the privileged code as well as the fact that memory read from address to which a recent memory write has occurred may see an older value and subsequently cause an update into the microprocessor’s data cache even for speculatively executed instructions that never actually commit (retire). As a result, an unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to read privileged memory by conducting targeted cache side-channel attacks.
(CVE-2018-3639)
An incomplete fix for CVE-2018-5748 that affects QEMU monitor leading to a resource exhaustion but now also triggered via QEMU guest agent. (CVE-2018-1064)
qemu/qemu_monitor.c in libvirt allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a large QEMU reply. (CVE-2018-5748)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
