medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 461722

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: can: gs_usb:
 gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): check actual_length before accessing header The driver expects to receive
 a struct gs_host_frame in gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(). Use struct_group to describe the header of the
 struct gs_host_frame and check that we have at least received the header before accessing any members of
 it. To resubmit the URB, do not dereference the pointer chain "dev->parent->hf_size_rx" but use
 "parent->hf_size_rx" instead. Since "urb->context" contains "parent", it is always defined, while "dev" is
 not defined if the URB it too short. (CVE-2025-68343)

Solution

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