Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.158-1

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 458649

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: can: hi311x: fix null pointer
 dereference when resuming from sleep before interface was enabled This issue is similar to the
 vulnerability in the `mcp251x` driver, which was fixed in commit 03c427147b2d ("can: mcp251x: fix resume
 from sleep before interface was brought up"). In the `hi311x` driver, when the device resumes from sleep,
 the driver schedules `priv->restart_work`. However, if the network interface was not previously enabled,
 the `priv->wq` (workqueue) is not allocated and initialized, leading to a null pointer dereference. To fix
 this, we move the allocation and initialization of the workqueue from the `hi3110_open` function to the
 `hi3110_can_probe` function. This ensures that the workqueue is properly initialized before it is used
 during device resume. And added logic to destroy the workqueue in the error handling paths of
 `hi3110_can_probe` and in the `hi3110_can_remove` function to prevent resource leaks. (CVE-2025-40107)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.158-1 or later.
