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: erofs: cap LZMA stream pool size
fs/erofs/decompressor_lzma.c sizes the module-global MicroLZMA stream pool from num_possible_cpus() when
the lzma_streams module parameter is unset, then z_erofs_load_lzma_config() preallocates one image-
supplied dictionary per stream, accepting dictionaries up to 8 MiB. On high-CPU systems, a small EROFS
image can pin hundreds of MiB of vmalloc-backed decoder state until the erofs module is unloaded. Impact:
An EROFS image mounted by the system can pin up to 8 MiB of vmalloc memory per LZMA stream, either as
intended or unexpectedly. Bound the default stream count by a new
CONFIG_EROFS_FS_ZIP_LZMA_DEFAULT_MAX_STREAMS option, default 16, so the worst-case default preallocation
is 128 MiB if the number of CPUs is no less than 16 while preserving the existing per-image dictionary
limit. An explicit lzma_streams module parameter is still honoured as-is, so administrators who
deliberately size the pool are not affected. (CVE-2026-80892)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_18 library and its related packages to version 20085.0.0 or later.
