Google: sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_6: security update to 18964.0.0

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 454661

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: ipv6: mcast: extend RCU protection in
 igmp6_send() igmp6_send() can be called without RTNL or RCU being held. Extend RCU protection so that we
 can safely fetch the net pointer and avoid a potential UAF. Note that we no longer can use
 sock_alloc_send_skb() because ipv6.igmp_sk uses GFP_KERNEL allocations which can sleep. Instead use
 alloc_skb() and charge the net->ipv6.igmp_sk socket under RCU protection. (CVE-2025-21759)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_6 library and its related packages to version 18964.0.0 or later.
