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: genetlink: pin family module during
policy dump The generic netlink controller's policy dump keeps pointers to the target family's operation
and policy tables in its callback state. A dump may be split across multiple skbs and remain pending after
the initial request. Netlink pins the module which owns the dump callback, but in this case that is the
controller's owner rather than the target family's owner. The target family can consequently be
unregistered and its module unloaded while a policy dump is pending. Advancing the dump then dereferences
policy memory from the unloaded module. Take a reference to the target family's module when the dump
starts. Drop it from the error and done paths. This matches the lifetime for which the dump context
retains the family and policy pointers. (CVE-2026-97901)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_12 library and its related packages to version 19999.44.106 or later.
