Echo: linux: security update to 6.12.96-1

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 458876

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: usb: typec: tcpci_rt1711h: unregister
TCPCI port with devres rt1711h_probe() registers the TCPCI port before requesting the interrupt and
enabling alert interrupts. If either of those later steps fails, the probe function returns without
unregistering the TCPCI port. The explicit unregister currently only happens from the remove callback.
Register a devres action immediately after tcpci_register_port() succeeds, so tcpci_unregister_port() runs
on later probe failures and on driver detach. Drop the remove callback to avoid unregistering the same
port twice. This issue was identified during our ongoing static-analysis research while reviewing kernel
code. (CVE-2026-64463)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.12.96-1 or later.
