Google: sys-kernel/csql-kernel-6_1, sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1: security update to 18244.236.5

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 450902

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: x86/mtrr: Check if fixed MTRRs exist
 before saving them MTRRs have an obsolete fixed variant for fine grained caching control of the 640K-1MB
 region that uses separate MSRs. This fixed variant has a separate capability bit in the MTRR capability
 MSR. So far all x86 CPUs which support MTRR have this separate bit set, so it went unnoticed that
 mtrr_save_state() does not check the capability bit before accessing the fixed MTRR MSRs. Though on a CPU
 that does not support the fixed MTRR capability this results in a #GP. The #GP itself is harmless because
 the RDMSR fault is handled gracefully, but results in a WARN_ON(). Add the missing capability check to
 prevent this. (CVE-2024-44948)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/csql-kernel-6_1 library and its related packages to version 18244.236.5 or later.
