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: io_uring/io-wq: re-check
IO_WQ_BIT_EXIT for each linked work item commit 10dc95939817 ("io_uring/io-wq: check IO_WQ_BIT_EXIT inside
work run loop") fixed the obvious case where io_worker_handle_work() took one exit-bit snapshot before
draining pending work, but the fix stops one level too early. io_worker_handle_work() now re-checks
IO_WQ_BIT_EXIT in its outer work run loop, yet it still snapshots that bit once before processing a whole
dependent linked-work chain. If io_wq_exit_start() sets IO_WQ_BIT_EXIT after the first linked item has
started, the remaining linked items can still reuse stale do_kill = false, skip IO_WQ_WORK_CANCEL, and
continue running after exit has begun. Move the check further inside, so it covers linked items too. Note:
this is a syzbot special as it loves setting up tons of slow linked work on weird devices like msr that
take forever to read, and immediately close the ring. Exit then takes a long time. (CVE-2026-64425)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_12 library and its related packages to version 19506.299.82 or later.
