Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.180-1

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 462701

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: usb: typec: tcpm: Validate SVID index
in svdm_consume_modes() In svdm_consume_modes(), the SVID value is read from pmdata->svids using
pmdata->svid_index as an array index without bounds validation: paltmode->svid =
pmdata->svids[pmdata->svid_index]; If pmdata->svid_index is driven beyond SVID_DISCOVERY_MAX (16), it
results in an out-of-bounds read of the pmdata->svids array. Because pd_mode_data is embedded inside
struct tcpm_port, indexing past svids reads into adjacent fields. In particular: - At index 16, it reads
the altmodes count. - At index 18 and beyond, it reads into altmode_desc[], which contains partner-
supplied SVDM Discovery Modes VDOs. By injecting a chosen SVID into altmode_desc[0].vdo and driving
svid_index to 20, the partner can force paltmode->svid to be loaded with an arbitrary, partner- chosen
SVID, which is then registered via typec_partner_register_altmode(). Fix this by validating that
pmdata->svid_index is non-negative and strictly less than pmdata->nsvids before accessing the
pmdata->svids array inside svdm_consume_modes(). (CVE-2026-64330)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.180-1 or later.
