Echo: linux: security update to 6.7.12-1

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 460300

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: f2fs: fix to truncate meta inode pages
 forcely Below race case can cause data corruption: Thread A GC thread - gc_data_segment - ra_data_block -
 locked meta_inode page - f2fs_inplace_write_data - invalidate_mapping_pages : fail to invalidate
 meta_inode page due to lock failure or dirty|writeback status - f2fs_submit_page_bio : write last dirty
 data to old blkaddr - move_data_block - load old data from meta_inode page - f2fs_submit_page_write :
 write old data to new blkaddr Because invalidate_mapping_pages() will skip invalidating page which has
 unclear status including locked, dirty, writeback and so on, so we need to use
 truncate_inode_pages_range() instead of invalidate_mapping_pages() to make sure meta_inode page will be
 dropped. (CVE-2024-26869)

Solution

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