Google: sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1: security update to 18244.151.14

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 450699

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xfs: fix log recovery buffer
allocation for the legacy h_size fixup Commit a70f9fe52daa ("xfs: detect and handle invalid iclog size set
by mkfs") added a fixup for incorrect h_size values used for the initial umount record in old xfsprogs
versions. Later commit 0c771b99d6c9 ("xfs: clean up calculation of LR header blocks") cleaned up the log
reover buffer calculation, but stoped using the fixed up h_size value to size the log recovery buffer,
which can lead to an out of bounds access when the incorrect h_size does not come from the old mkfs tool,
but a fuzzer. Fix this by open coding xlog_logrec_hblks and taking the fixed h_size into account for this
calculation. (CVE-2024-39472)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1 library and its related packages to version 18244.151.14 or later.
