Echo: linux: security update to 6.11.7-1

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 461746

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: drm/mediatek: Fix potential NULL
 dereference in mtk_crtc_destroy() In mtk_crtc_create(), if the call to mbox_request_channel() fails then
 we set the "mtk_crtc->cmdq_client.chan" pointer to NULL. In that situation, we do not call
 cmdq_pkt_create(). During the cleanup, we need to check if the "mtk_crtc->cmdq_client.chan" is NULL first
 before calling cmdq_pkt_destroy(). Calling cmdq_pkt_destroy() is unnecessary if we didn't call
 cmdq_pkt_create() and it will result in a NULL pointer dereference. (CVE-2024-53056)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.11.7-1 or later.
