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: bcache: revert replacing
 IS_ERR_OR_NULL with IS_ERR again Commit 028ddcac477b ("bcache: Remove unnecessary NULL point check in node
 allocations") leads a NULL pointer deference in cache_set_flush(). 1721 if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(c->root)) 1722
 list_add(&c->root->list, &c->btree_cache); >From the above code in cache_set_flush(), if previous
 registration code fails before allocating c->root, it is possible c->root is NULL as what it is
 initialized. __bch_btree_node_alloc() never returns NULL but c->root is possible to be NULL at above line
 1721. This patch replaces IS_ERR() by IS_ERR_OR_NULL() to fix this. (CVE-2024-48881)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1 library and its related packages to version 18244.291.3 or later.
