high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 451254

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: netfilter: nf_tables: fix use-after-
free in nf_tables_addchain() nf_tables_addchain() publishes the chain to table->chains via
list_add_tail_rcu() (in nft_chain_add()) before registering hooks. If nf_tables_register_hook() then
fails, the error path calls nft_chain_del() (list_del_rcu()) followed by nf_tables_chain_destroy() with no
RCU grace period in between. This creates two use-after-free conditions: 1) Control-plane:
nf_tables_dump_chains() traverses table->chains under rcu_read_lock(). A concurrent dump can still be
walking the chain when the error path frees it. 2) Packet path: for NFPROTO_INET, nf_register_net_hook()
briefly installs the IPv4 hook before IPv6 registration fails. Packets entering nft_do_chain() via the
transient IPv4 hook can still be dereferencing chain->blob_gen_X when the error path frees the chain. Add
synchronize_rcu() between nft_chain_del() and the chain destroy so that all RCU readers -- both dump
threads and in-flight packet evaluation -- have finished before the chain is freed. (CVE-2026-23231)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/csql-kernel-6_1 library and its related packages to version 18244.582.42 or later.
