Echo: linux: security update to 6.12.37-1

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 457531

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: dmaengine: idxd: Check availability of
 workqueue allocated by idxd wq driver before using Running IDXD workloads in a container with the /dev
 directory mounted can trigger a call trace or even a kernel panic when the parent process of the container
 is terminated. This issue occurs because, under certain configurations, Docker does not properly propagate
 the mount replica back to the original mount point. In this case, when the user driver detaches, the WQ is
 destroyed but it still calls destroy_workqueue() attempting to completes all pending work. It's necessary
 to check wq->wq and skip the drain if it no longer exists. (CVE-2025-38369)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.12.37-1 or later.
