high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 460121

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: net: sxgbe: fix potential NULL
 dereference in sxgbe_rx() Currently, when skb is null, the driver prints an error and then dereferences
 skb on the next line. To fix this, let's add a 'break' after the error message to switch to
 sxgbe_rx_refill(), which is similar to the approach taken by the other drivers in this particular case,
 e.g. calxeda with xgmac_rx(). Found during a code review. (CVE-2025-68302)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.159-1 or later.
