The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2023:7558 advisory.

  • kernel: net/sched: cls_u32 component reference counter leak if tcf_change_indev() fails (CVE-2023-3609)

  • kernel: net/sched: Use-after-free vulnerabilities in the net/sched classifiers: cls_fw, cls_u32 and cls_route (CVE-2023-4128, CVE-2023-4206, CVE-2023-4207, CVE-2023-4208)

  • kernel: netfilter: potential slab-out-of-bound access due to integer underflow (CVE-2023-42753)

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