Google: sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1: security update to 18244.151.80

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 450664

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: filelock: Remove locks reliably when
fcntl/close race is detected When fcntl_setlk() races with close(), it removes the created lock with
do_lock_file_wait(). However, LSMs can allow the first do_lock_file_wait() that created the lock while
denying the second do_lock_file_wait() that tries to remove the lock. Separately, posix_lock_file() could
also fail to remove a lock due to GFP_KERNEL allocation failure (when splitting a range in the middle).
After the bug has been triggered, use-after-free reads will occur in lock_get_status() when userspace
reads /proc/locks. This can likely be used to read arbitrary kernel memory, but can't corrupt kernel
memory. Fix it by calling locks_remove_posix() instead, which is designed to reliably get rid of POSIX
locks associated with the given file and files_struct and is also used by filp_flush(). (CVE-2024-41012)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1 library and its related packages to version 18244.151.80 or later.
