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: RDMA/mad: Improve handling of timed
out WRs of mad agent Current timeout handler of mad agent acquires/releases mad_agent_priv lock for every
timed out WRs. This causes heavy locking contention when higher no. of WRs are to be handled inside
timeout handler. This leads to softlockup with below trace in some use cases where rdma-cm path is used to
establish connection between peer nodes Trace: ----- BUG: soft lockup - CPU#4 stuck for 26s!

acquires/ releases lock once to fetch the list and hence helps to reduce locking contetiong when
processing higher no. of WRs (CVE-2024-50095)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1 library and its related packages to version 18613.75.37 or later.
