medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 455351

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: iio: adc: at91-sama5d2_adc: Fix
 potential use-after-free in sama5d2_adc driver at91_adc_interrupt can call at91_adc_touch_data_handler
 function to start the work by schedule_work(&st->touch_st.workq). If we remove the module which will call
 at91_adc_remove to make cleanup, it will free indio_dev through iio_device_unregister but quite a bit
 later. While the work mentioned above will be used. The sequence of operations that may lead to a UAF bug
 is as follows: CPU0 CPU1 | at91_adc_workq_handler at91_adc_remove | iio_device_unregister(indio_dev) |
 //free indio_dev a bit later | | iio_push_to_buffers(indio_dev) | //use indio_dev Fix it by ensuring that
 the work is canceled before proceeding with the cleanup in at91_adc_remove. (CVE-2025-71199)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.162-1 or later.
