The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM / 18.04 ESM / 20.04 ESM / 22.04 ESM host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5205-1 advisory.

It was discovered that Tcpreplay incorrectly handled certain specially crafted packet capture input when     processed by tcpprep. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue     only affected Ubuntu 18.04 ESM. (CVE-2018-13112)

It was discovered that Tcpreplay incorrectly handled certain specially crafted packet capture input. An     attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or expose sensitive information. This     issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 ESM and Ubuntu 18.04 ESM. (CVE-2018-17580, CVE-2018-17582)

It was discovered that Tcpreplay incorrectly handled certain specially crafted packet capture input. An     attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04     ESM and Ubuntu 18.04 ESM. (CVE-2018-17974, CVE-2018-18407)

It was discovered that a use-after-free existed in Tcpreplay in the tcpbridge binary. An attacker could     possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 ESM and Ubuntu     18.04 ESM. (CVE-2018-18408)

It was discovered that Tcpreplay incorrectly handled certain specially crafted packet capture input. An     attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04     ESM, Ubuntu 18.04 ESM and Ubuntu 20.04 ESM. (CVE-2018-20552, CVE-2018-20553)

It was discovered that a heap-based buffer over-read that existed in Tcpreplay caused an application crash     when tcprewrite or tcpreplay-edit received specially crafted packet capture input. An attacker could     possibly use this to cause a denial of service or to expose sensitive information. This issue only     affected Ubuntu 18.04 ESM and Ubuntu 20.04 ESM. (CVE-2020-12740)

It was discovered that Tcpreplay incorrectly handled certain specially crafted packet capture input when     processed by tcpprep. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue     only affected Ubuntu 18.04 ESM and Ubuntu 20.04 ESM. (CVE-2020-24265, CVE-2020-24266)

It was discovered that Tcpreplay incorrectly handled certain specially crafted packet capture input when     processed by tcprewrite. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This     issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 ESM. (CVE-2022-27416)

It was discovered that Tcpreplay did not properly manage memory under certain circumstances. If a user     were tricked into opening a specially crafted packet capture file, a remote attacker could possibly use     this issue to cause Tcpreplay crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly read sensitive data.
This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 ESM, Ubuntu 20.04 ESM and Ubuntu 22.04 ESM. (CVE-2022-28487)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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