Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.139-1

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 459058

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: module: ensure that kobject_put() is
 safe for module type kobjects In 'lookup_or_create_module_kobject()', an internal kobject is created using
 'module_ktype'. So call to 'kobject_put()' on error handling path causes an attempt to use an
 uninitialized completion pointer in 'module_kobject_release()'. In this scenario, we just want to release
 kobject without an extra synchronization required for a regular module unloading process, so adding an
 extra check whether 'complete()' is actually required makes 'kobject_put()' safe. (CVE-2025-37995)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.139-1 or later.
