In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: block: fix queue freeze vs limits lock order in sysfs store methods queue_attr_store() always freezes a device queue before calling the attribute store operation. For attributes that control queue limits, the store operation will also lock the queue limits with a call to queue_limits_start_update(). However, some drivers (e.g. SCSI sd) may need to issue commands to a device to obtain limit values from the hardware with the queue limits locked. This creates a potential ABBA deadlock situation if a user attempts to modify a limit (thus freezing the device queue) while the device driver starts a revalidation of the device queue limits. Avoid such deadlock by not freezing the queue before calling the ->store_limit() method in struct queue_sysfs_entry and instead use the queue_limits_commit_update_frozen helper to freeze the queue after taking the limits lock. This also removes taking the sysfs lock for the store_limit method as it doesn't protect anything here, but creates even more nesting. Hopefully it will go away from the actual sysfs methods entirely soon. (commit log adapted from a similar patch from Damien Le Moal)

    Linux 6.12 has been packaged for Debian 12 bookworm as linux-6.12.
    This provides a supported upgrade path for systems that currently use     kernel packages from the bookworm-backports suite.

    There is no need to upgrade systems using Linux 6.1, as that kernel     version will also continue to be supported in the LTS period.

    The apt full-upgrade command will *not* automatically install the     updated kernel packages.  You should explicitly install one of the     following metapackages first, as appropriate for your system:

        linux-image-6.12-amd64         linux-image-6.12-arm64         linux-image-6.12-arm64-16k         linux-image-6.12-armmp         linux-image-6.12-armmp-lpae         linux-image-6.12-cloud-amd64         linux-image-6.12-cloud-arm64         linux-image-6.12-powerpc64le         linux-image-6.12-powerpc64le-64k         linux-image-6.12-rt-amd64         linux-image-6.12-rt-arm64         linux-image-6.12-rt-armmp

    For example, if the command uname -r currently shows     6.12.95+deb12-amd64, you should install linux-image-6.12-amd64.

    This backport does not include the following binary packages:

        bpftool hyperv-daemons intel-sdsi libcpupower-dev libcpupower1         linux-cpupower linux-libc-dev linux-perf rtla usbip

    Older versions of most of those are built from the linux source     package in Debian 12.

    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that     may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information     leaks.

    For Debian 12 bookworm, these problems have been fixed in version     6.12.100-1~deb12u1.  This update also fixes several bugs reported to     Debian.  It additionally includes many more bug fixes from stable     updates 6.12.96-6.12.100.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux-6.12 packages.

    For the detailed security status of linux-6.12 please refer to     its security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/linux-6.12

An update of the linux package has been released.

The remote Debian 13 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-6393 advisory.

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

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

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2025-984 advisory.

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

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

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: block: fix queue freeze vs limits lock     order in sysfs store methods queue_attr_store() always freezes a device queue before calling the attribute     store operation. For attributes that control queue limits, the store operation will also lock the queue     limits with a call to queue_limits_start_update(). However, some drivers (e.g. SCSI sd) may need to issue     commands to a device to obtain limit values from the hardware with the queue limits locked. This creates a     potential ABBA deadlock situation if a user attempts to modify a limit (thus freezing the device queue)     while the device driver starts a revalidation of the device queue limits. Avoid such deadlock by not     freezing the queue before calling the ->store_limit() method in struct queue_sysfs_entry and instead use     the queue_limits_commit_update_frozen helper to freeze the queue after taking the limits lock. This also     removes taking the sysfs lock for the store_limit method as it doesn't protect anything here, but creates     even more nesting. Hopefully it will go away from the actual sysfs methods entirely soon. (commit log     adapted from a similar patch from Damien Le Moal) (CVE-2025-21807)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
