"The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in
the USN-3932-1 advisory.

  - The add_free_nid function in fs/f2fs/node.c in the Linux kernel before 4.12 does not properly track an
    allocated nid, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (race condition) or possibly have
    unspecified other impact via concurrent threads. (CVE-2017-18249)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/f2fs/super.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. There is an out-of-bounds
    read or a divide-by-zero error for an incorrect user_block_count in a corrupted f2fs image, leading to a
    denial of service (BUG). (CVE-2018-13097)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/f2fs/inline.c in the Linux kernel through 4.4. A denial of service (out-of-
    bounds memory access and BUG) can occur for a modified f2fs filesystem image in which an inline inode
    contains an invalid reserved blkaddr. (CVE-2018-13099)

  - An issue was discovered in fs/f2fs/super.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3, which does not properly
    validate secs_per_zone in a corrupted f2fs image, as demonstrated by a divide-by-zero error.
    (CVE-2018-13100)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is out-of-bounds access in
    write_extent_buffer() when mounting and operating a crafted btrfs image, because of a lack of verification
    that each block group has a corresponding chunk at mount time, within btrfs_read_block_groups in
    fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c. (CVE-2018-14610)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is a use-after-free in
    try_merge_free_space() when mounting a crafted btrfs image, because of a lack of chunk type flag checks in
    btrfs_check_chunk_valid in fs/btrfs/volumes.c. (CVE-2018-14611)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is an invalid pointer dereference in
    btrfs_root_node() when mounting a crafted btrfs image, because of a lack of chunk block group mapping
    validation in btrfs_read_block_groups in fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c, and a lack of empty-tree checks in
    check_leaf in fs/btrfs/tree-checker.c. (CVE-2018-14612)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is an invalid pointer dereference in
    io_ctl_map_page() when mounting and operating a crafted btrfs image, because of a lack of block group item
    validation in check_leaf_item in fs/btrfs/tree-checker.c. (CVE-2018-14613)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is an out-of-bounds access in
    __remove_dirty_segment() in fs/f2fs/segment.c when mounting an f2fs image. (CVE-2018-14614)

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There is a NULL pointer dereference in
    fscrypt_do_page_crypto() in fs/crypto/crypto.c when operating on a file in a corrupted f2fs image.
    (CVE-2018-14616)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NFS41+ subsystem. NFS41+ shares mounted in different network
    namespaces at the same time can make bc_svc_process() use wrong back-channel IDs and cause a use-after-
    free vulnerability. Thus a malicious container user can cause a host kernel memory corruption and a system
    panic. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out. (CVE-2018-16884)

  - In pppol2tp_connect, there is possible memory corruption due to a use after free. This could lead to local
    escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for
    exploitation. Product: Android. Versions: Android kernel. Android ID: A-38159931. (CVE-2018-9517)

  - A heap address information leak while using L2CAP_GET_CONF_OPT was discovered in the Linux kernel before
    5.1-rc1. (CVE-2019-3459)

  - A heap data infoleak in multiple locations including L2CAP_PARSE_CONF_RSP was found in the Linux kernel
    before 5.1-rc1. (CVE-2019-3460)

  - An issue was discovered in can_can_gw_rcv in net/can/gw.c in the Linux kernel through 4.19.13. The CAN
    frame modification rules allow bitwise logical operations that can be also applied to the can_dlc field.
    The privileged user root with CAP_NET_ADMIN can create a CAN frame modification rule that makes the data
    length code a higher value than the available CAN frame data size. In combination with a configured
    checksum calculation where the result is stored relatively to the end of the data (e.g. cgw_csum_xor_rel)
    the tail of the skb (e.g. frag_list pointer in skb_shared_info) can be rewritten which finally can cause a
    system crash. Because of a missing check, the CAN drivers may write arbitrary content beyond the data
    registers in the CAN controller's I/O memory when processing can-gw manipulated outgoing frames.
    (CVE-2019-3701)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the function hid_debug_events_read() in drivers/hid/hid-debug.c
    file which may enter an infinite loop with certain parameters passed from a userspace. A local privileged
    user (root) can cause a system lock up and a denial of service. Versions from v4.18 and newer are
    vulnerable. (CVE-2019-3819)

  - In the Linux kernel before 4.20.8, kvm_ioctl_create_device in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c mishandles reference
    counting because of a race condition, leading to a use-after-free. (CVE-2019-6974)

  - The KVM implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.20.5 has a Use-after-Free. (CVE-2019-7221)

  - The KVM implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.20.5 has an Information Leak. (CVE-2019-7222)

  - In the Linux kernel before 4.20.14, expand_downwards in mm/mmap.c lacks a check for the mmap minimum
    address, which makes it easier for attackers to exploit kernel NULL pointer dereferences on non-SMAP
    platforms. This is related to a capability check for the wrong task. (CVE-2019-9213)
