Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.148-1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 459201

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: Input: gpio-keys - fix a sleep while
 atomic with PREEMPT_RT When enabling PREEMPT_RT, the gpio_keys_irq_timer() callback runs in hard irq
 context, but the input_event() takes a spin_lock, which isn't allowed there as it is converted to a
 rt_spin_lock(). [ 4054.289999] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at
 kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:48 [ 4054.290028] in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, pid: 0,
 name: swapper/0 ... [ 4054.290195] __might_resched+0x13c/0x1f4 [ 4054.290209] rt_spin_lock+0x54/0x11c [
 4054.290219] input_event+0x48/0x80 [ 4054.290230] gpio_keys_irq_timer+0x4c/0x78 [ 4054.290243]
 __hrtimer_run_queues+0x1a4/0x438 [ 4054.290257] hrtimer_interrupt+0xe4/0x240 [ 4054.290269]

 handle_irq_desc+0x40/0x58 [ 4054.290307] generic_handle_domain_irq+0x1c/0x28 [ 4054.290316]
 gic_handle_irq+0x44/0xcc Considering the gpio_keys_irq_isr() can run in any context, e.g. it can be
 threaded, it seems there's no point in requesting the timer isr to run in hard irq context. Relax the
 hrtimer not to use the hard context. (CVE-2025-38335)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.148-1 or later.
