Threat Intelligence
The probability is the direct output of the EPSS model, and conveys an overall sense of the threat of exploitation in the wild. The percentile measures the EPSS probability relative to all known EPSS scores. Note: This data is updated daily, relying on the latest available EPSS model version. Check out the EPSS documentation for more details.

CVE-2022-48855 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade SLES:15.5 kernel-macros to version 5.14.21-150500.55.73.1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-macros package and not the kernel-macros package as distributed by SLES.
See How to fix? for SLES:15.5 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: fix kernel-infoleak for SCTP sockets
syzbot reported a kernel infoleak [1] of 4 bytes.
After analysis, it turned out r->idiag_expires is not initialized if inet_sctp_diag_fill() calls inet_diag_msg_common_fill()
Make sure to clear idiag_timer/idiag_retrans/idiag_expires and let inet_diag_msg_sctpasoc_fill() fill them again if needed.
