Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.162-1

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 457387

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: net: rose: fix invalid array index in
rose_kill_by_device() rose_kill_by_device() collects sockets into a local array[] and then iterates over
them to disconnect sockets bound to a device being brought down. The loop mistakenly indexes array[cnt]
instead of array[i]. For cnt < ARRAY_SIZE(array), this reads an uninitialized entry; for cnt ==
ARRAY_SIZE(array), it is an out-of-bounds read. Either case can lead to an invalid socket pointer
dereference and also leaks references taken via sock_hold(). Fix the index to use i. (CVE-2025-71086)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.162-1 or later.
