Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.147-1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 458365

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: pinctrl: qcom: msm: mark certain pins
as invalid for interrupts On some platforms, the UFS-reset pin has no interrupt logic in TLMM but is
nevertheless registered as a GPIO in the kernel. This enables the user-space to trigger a BUG() in the
pinctrl-msm driver by running, for example: `gpiomon -c 0 113` on RB2. The exact culprit is requesting
pins whose intr_detection_width setting is not 1 or 2 for interrupts. This hits a BUG() in
msm_gpio_irq_set_type(). Potentially crashing the kernel due to an invalid request from user-space is not
optimal, so let's go through the pins and mark those that would fail the check as invalid for the irq chip
as we should not even register them as available irqs. This function can be extended if we determine that
there are more corner-cases like this. (CVE-2025-38516)

Solution

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