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: sched/deadline: Fix missing
ENQUEUE_REPLENISH during PI de-boosting Running stress-ng --schedpolicy 0 on an RT kernel on a big machine
might lead to the following WARNINGs (edited). sched: DL de-boosted task PID 22725: REPLENISH flag missing
WARNING: CPU: 93 PID: 0 at kernel/sched/deadline.c:239 dequeue_task_dl+0x15c/0x1f8 ... (running_bw
underflow) Call trace: dequeue_task_dl+0x15c/0x1f8 (P) dequeue_task+0x80/0x168 deactivate_task+0x24/0x50
push_dl_task+0x264/0x2e0 dl_task_timer+0x1b0/0x228 __hrtimer_run_queues+0x188/0x378
hrtimer_interrupt+0xfc/0x260 ... The problem is that when a SCHED_DEADLINE task (lock holder) is changed
to a lower priority class via sched_setscheduler(), it may fail to properly inherit the parameters of
potential DEADLINE donors if it didn't already inherit them in the past (shorter deadline than donor's at
that time). This might lead to bandwidth accounting corruption, as enqueue_task_dl() won't recognize the
lock holder as boosted. The scenario occurs when: 1. A DEADLINE task (donor) blocks on a PI mutex held by
another DEADLINE task (holder), but the holder doesn't inherit parameters (e.g., it already has a shorter
deadline) 2. sched_setscheduler() changes the holder from DEADLINE to a lower class while still holding
the mutex 3. The holder should now inherit DEADLINE parameters from the donor and be enqueued with
ENQUEUE_REPLENISH, but this doesn't happen Fix the issue by introducing __setscheduler_dl_pi(), which
detects when a DEADLINE (proper or boosted) task gets setscheduled to a lower priority class. In case, the
function makes the task inherit DEADLINE parameters of the donoer (pi_se) and sets ENQUEUE_REPLENISH flag
to ensure proper bandwidth accounting during the next enqueue operation. (CVE-2026-23371)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_12 library and its related packages to version 19862.0.0 or later.
