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: bpf,lsm: Drop bpf_prog_free from
sleepable_lsm_hooks __bpf_prog_put_rcu() is the call_rcu() callback for non-sleepable programs.
security_bpf_prog_free() called from there fires bpf_prog_free in softirq; if a sleepable LSM prog is
attached to that hook, might_fault() BUGs: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context in_atomic():
1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 5038 preempt_count: 101, expected: 0 Call Trace: <IRQ>
__bpf_prog_enter_sleepable+0x1cd/0x320 kernel/bpf/trampoline.c:1255 bpf_trampoline_6442549705+0x53/0xd7
security_bpf_prog_free+0xde/0x130 security/security.c:5465 __bpf_prog_put_rcu+0xab/0xd0
kernel/bpf/syscall.c:2365 rcu_do_batch kernel/rcu/tree.c:2617 [inline] handle_softirqs+0x236/0x800
kernel/softirq.c:622 </IRQ> The call_rcu/call_rcu_tasks_trace split reflects the freed program's
sleepability, not that of any attached observer. security_bpf_prog_free() also frees prog->aux->security,
which has to stay after the grace period, so drop bpf_prog_free from sleepable_lsm_hooks rather than move
the call. Non-sleepable observers still run there. (CVE-2026-93173)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_18 library and its related packages to version 20198.0.0 or later.
