Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.162-1

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 457711

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: gpu: host1x: Fix race in syncpt
 alloc/free Fix race condition between host1x_syncpt_alloc() and host1x_syncpt_put() by using
 kref_put_mutex() instead of kref_put() + manual mutex locking. This ensures no thread can acquire the
 syncpt_mutex after the refcount drops to zero but before syncpt_release acquires it. This prevents races
 where syncpoints could be allocated while still being cleaned up from a previous release. Remove explicit
 mutex locking in syncpt_release as kref_put_mutex() handles this atomically. (CVE-2025-68732)

Solution

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