Echo: linux: security update to 6.7.12-1

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 459669

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: md/dm-raid: don't call
md_reap_sync_thread() directly Currently md_reap_sync_thread() is called from raid_message() directly
without holding 'reconfig_mutex', this is definitely unsafe because md_reap_sync_thread() can change many
fields that is protected by 'reconfig_mutex'. However, hold 'reconfig_mutex' here is still problematic
because this will cause deadlock, for example, commit 130443d60b1b ("md: refactor
idle/frozen_sync_thread() to fix deadlock"). Fix this problem by using stop_sync_thread() to unregister
sync_thread, like md/raid did. (CVE-2024-35808)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.7.12-1 or later.
