Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.147-1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 459239

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: usb: typec: displayport: Fix potential
 deadlock The deadlock can occur due to a recursive lock acquisition of `cros_typec_altmode_data::mutex`.
 The call chain is as follows: 1. cros_typec_altmode_work() acquires the mutex 2. typec_altmode_vdm() ->
 dp_altmode_vdm() -> 3. typec_altmode_exit() -> cros_typec_altmode_exit() 4. cros_typec_altmode_exit()
 attempts to acquire the mutex again To prevent this, defer the `typec_altmode_exit()` call by scheduling
 it rather than calling it directly from within the mutex-protected context. (CVE-2025-38404)

Solution

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