Google: sys-kernel/csql-kernel-6_1, sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1: security update to 18244.448.6

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 451018

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: net/mdiobus: Fix potential out-of-
bounds read/write access When using publicly available tools like 'mdio-tools' to read/write data from/to
network interface and its PHY via mdiobus, there is no verification of parameters passed to the ioctl and
it accepts any mdio address. Currently there is support for 32 addresses in kernel via PHY_MAX_ADDR
define, but it is possible to pass higher value than that via ioctl. While read/write operation should
generally fail in this case, mdiobus provides stats array, where wrong address may allow out-of-bounds
read/write. Fix that by adding address verification before read/write operation. While this excludes this
access from any statistics, it improves security of read/write operation. (CVE-2025-38111)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/csql-kernel-6_1 library and its related packages to version 18244.448.6 or later.
