Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.162-1

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 458762

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: RDMA/irdma: avoid invalid read in
 irdma_net_event irdma_net_event() should not dereference anything from "neigh" (alias "ptr") until it has
 checked that the event is NETEVENT_NEIGH_UPDATE. Other events come with different structures pointed to by
 "ptr" and they may be smaller than struct neighbour. Move the read of neigh->dev under the
 NETEVENT_NEIGH_UPDATE case. The bug is mostly harmless, but it triggers KASAN on debug kernels: BUG:
