In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_ncm: Fix net_device lifecycle with device_move The network device outlived its parent gadget device during disconnection, resulting in dangling sysfs links and null pointer dereference problems. A prior attempt to solve this by removing SET_NETDEV_DEV entirely [1] was reverted due to power management ordering concerns and a NO-CARRIER regression. A subsequent attempt to defer net_device allocation to bind [2] broke 1:1 mapping between function instance and network device, making it impossible for configfs to report the resolved interface name. This results in a regression where the DHCP server fails on pmOS. Use device_move to reparent the net_device between the gadget device and /sys/devices/virtual/ across bind/unbind cycles. This preserves the network interface across USB reconnection, allowing the DHCP server to retain their binding. Introduce gether_attach_gadget()/gether_detach_gadget() helpers and use __free(detach_gadget) macro to undo attachment on bind failure. The bind_count ensures device_move executes only on the first bind.

Debian Bug     : 1130365 1119093

    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     6.1.176-1.  This version additionally includes many more bug fixes     from stable updates 6.1.175 and 6.1.176.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux packages.

    For the detailed security status of linux please refer to     its security tracker page at:

An update of the linux package has been released.

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

  - usb: gadget: f_ncm: Fix net_device lifecycle with device_move The network device outlived its parent     gadget device during disconnection, resulting in dangling sysfs links and null pointer dereference     problems. A prior attempt to solve this by removing SET_NETDEV_DEV entirely [1] was reverted due to power     management ordering concerns and a NO-CARRIER regression. A subsequent attempt to defer net_device     allocation to bind [2] broke 1:1 mapping between function instance and network device, making it     impossible for configfs to report the resolved interface name. This results in a regression where the DHCP     server fails on pmOS. Use device_move to reparent the net_device between the gadget device and     /sys/devices/virtual/ across bind/unbind cycles. This preserves the network interface across USB     reconnection, allowing the DHCP server to retain their binding. Introduce     gether_attach_gadget()/gether_detach_gadget() helpers and use __free(detach_gadget) macro to undo     attachment on bind failure. The bind_count ensures device_move executes only on the first bind.

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