Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.176-1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 455194

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: bnxt_en: Fix NULL pointer dereference
PCIe errors detected by a Root Port or Downstream Port cause error recovery services to run on all
subordinate devices regardless of administrative state. The .error_detected() callback,
bnxt_io_error_detected(), disables and synchronizes IRQs via bnxt_disable_int_sync(), which calls
bnxt_cp_num_to_irq_num() to map completion rings to IRQs using bp->bnapi. Since bp->bnapi is allocated on
NIC open and freed on NIC close, PCIe error recovery on a closed NIC can dereference a NULL pointer. Check
if bp->bnapi is NULL before disabling and synchronizing IRQs. (CVE-2026-53177)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.176-1 or later.
