Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.147-1

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 464012

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: rseq: Fix segfault on registration
when rseq_cs is non-zero The rseq_cs field is documented as being set to 0 by user-space prior to
registration, however this is not currently enforced by the kernel. This can result in a segfault on
return to user-space if the value stored in the rseq_cs field doesn't point to a valid struct rseq_cs. The
correct solution to this would be to fail the rseq registration when the rseq_cs field is non-zero.
However, some older versions of glibc will reuse the rseq area of previous threads without clearing the
rseq_cs field and will also terminate the process if the rseq registration fails in a secondary thread.
This wasn't caught in testing because in this case the leftover rseq_cs does point to a valid struct
rseq_cs. What we can do is clear the rseq_cs field on registration when it's non-zero which will prevent
segfaults on registration and won't break the glibc versions that reuse rseq areas on thread creation.
(CVE-2025-38067)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.147-1 or later.
