medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 469096

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: netdev-genl: report NAPI thread PID in
the caller's pid namespace netdev_nl_napi_fill_one() reports the NAPI kthread PID in NETDEV_A_NAPI_PID
using task_pid_nr(), which returns the PID in the initial pid namespace. NETDEV_CMD_NAPI_GET does not have
GENL_ADMIN_PERM and the netdev genl family is netnsok, so a caller in a child pid namespace can issue it.
That caller then sees the kthread's global PID, even though the kthread is not visible in its pid
namespace, where the value should be 0. Translate the PID through the caller's pid namespace, the same way
commit 3799c2570982 ("io_uring/fdinfo: translate SqThread PID through caller's pid_ns") did for the
io_uring SQPOLL thread. The doit and dumpit paths both run synchronously in the caller's context, so
task_active_pid_ns(current) is the caller's pid namespace. (CVE-2026-72127)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_12 library and its related packages to version 19506.448.8 or later.
