medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 454404

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: scs: fix a wrong parameter in
__scs_magic __scs_magic() needs a 'void *' variable, but a 'struct task_struct *' is given.
'task_scs(tsk)' is the starting address of the task's shadow call stack, and '__scs_magic(task_scs(tsk))'
is the end address of the task's shadow call stack. Here should be '__scs_magic(task_scs(tsk))'. The user-
visible effect of this bug is that when CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE is enabled, the shadow call stack usage
checking function (scs_check_usage) would scan an incorrect memory range. This could lead 1. **Inaccurate
stack usage reporting**: The function would calculate wrong usage statistics for the shadow call stack,
potentially showing incorrect value in kmsg. 2. **Potential kernel crash**: If the value of
__scs_magic(tsk)is greater than that of __scs_magic(task_scs(tsk)), the for loop may access unmapped
memory, potentially causing a kernel panic. However, this scenario is unlikely because task_struct is
allocated via the slab allocator (which typically returns lower addresses), while the shadow call stack
returned by task_scs(tsk) is allocated via vmalloc(which typically returns higher addresses). However,
since this is purely a debugging feature (CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE), normal production systems should be
not unaffected. The bug only impacts developers and testers who are actively debugging stack usage with
this configuration enabled. (CVE-2025-71102)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/csql-kernel-6_6 library and its related packages to version 18867.294.100 or later.
