high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 465049

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: ALSA: usb-audio: Fix out-of-bounds
read in snd_usb_get_audioformat_uac3() In snd_usb_get_audioformat_uac3(), the length value returned from
snd_usb_ctl_msg() is used directly for memory allocation without validation. This length is controlled by
the USB device. The allocated buffer is cast to a uac3_cluster_header_descriptor and its fields are
accessed without verifying that the buffer is large enough. If the device returns a smaller than expected
length, this leads to an out-of-bounds read. Add a length check to ensure the buffer is large enough for
uac3_cluster_header_descriptor. (CVE-2025-38249)

Solution

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