high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 462650

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: ksmbd: prevent out-of-bounds stream
 writes by validating *pos ksmbd_vfs_stream_write() did not validate whether the write offset (*pos) was
 within the bounds of the existing stream data length (v_len). If *pos was greater than or equal to v_len,
 this could lead to an out-of-bounds memory write. This patch adds a check to ensure *pos is less than
 v_len before proceeding. If the condition fails, -EINVAL is returned. (CVE-2025-37947)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.140-1 or later.
