Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.147-1

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 457430

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: can: bcm: add locking for bcm_op
runtime updates The CAN broadcast manager (CAN BCM) can send a sequence of CAN frames via hrtimer. The
content and also the length of the sequence can be changed resp reduced at runtime where the 'currframe'
counter is then set to zero. Although this appeared to be a safe operation the updates of 'currframe' can
be triggered from user space and hrtimer context in bcm_can_tx(). Anderson Nascimento created a proof of
concept that triggered a KASAN slab-out-of-bounds read access which can be prevented with a spin_lock_bh.
At the rework of bcm_can_tx() the 'count' variable has been moved into the protected section as this
variable can be modified from both contexts too. (CVE-2025-38004)

Solution

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