high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 457218

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: ipmi:msghandler: Fix potential memory
 corruption in ipmi_create_user() The "intf" list iterator is an invalid pointer if the correct
 "intf->intf_num" is not found. Calling atomic_dec(&intf->nr_users) on and invalid pointer will lead to
 memory corruption. We don't really need to call atomic_dec() if we haven't called atomic_add_return() so
 update the if (intf->in_shutdown) path as well. (CVE-2025-38456)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.147-1 or later.
