medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 469569

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: xen/gntdev: fix error handling in
ioctl When gntdev_ioctl_map_grant_ref() fails to copy the operation result back to userspace after
successfully adding the mapping to the list, the error path returns -EFAULT without releasing the
reference acquired by gntdev_alloc_map(). The mapping remains in priv->maps with a refcount of 1, causing
a memory leak and a dangling list entry. Additionally, gntdev_add_map() may modify map->index to avoid
overlap with existing mappings. Therefore, the index returned to userspace must be obtained after
gntdev_add_map() completes. Fix this by holding the mutex across gntdev_add_map(), retrieving the correct
index, and copy_to_user(). If copy_to_user() fails, remove the mapping from the list and release the
reference while still holding the lock. Fix these issues by properly handling all error cases.
(CVE-2026-72138)

Solution

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