medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 458466

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: ext4: do not BUG when INLINE_DATA_FL
 lacks system.data xattr A syzbot fuzzed image triggered a BUG_ON in ext4_update_inline_data() when an
 inode had the INLINE_DATA_FL flag set but was missing the system.data extended attribute. Since this can
 happen due to a maiciouly fuzzed file system, we shouldn't BUG, but rather, report it as a corrupted file
 system. Add similar replacements of BUG_ON with EXT4_ERROR_INODE() ii ext4_create_inline_data() and
 ext4_inline_data_truncate(). (CVE-2025-38701)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.153-1 or later.
