Echo: linux: security update to 6.7.9-1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 459417

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: ASoC: qcom: Fix uninitialized pointer
 dmactl In the case where __lpass_get_dmactl_handle is called and the driver id dai_id is invalid the
 pointer dmactl is not being assigned a value, and dmactl contains a garbage value since it has not been
 initialized and so the null check may not work. Fix this to initialize dmactl to NULL. One could argue
 that modern compilers will set this to zero, but it is useful to keep this initialized as per the same way
 in functions __lpass_platform_codec_intf_init and lpass_cdc_dma_daiops_hw_params. Cleans up clang scan
 build warning: sound/soc/qcom/lpass-cdc-dma.c:275:7: warning: Branch condition evaluates to a garbage
 value [core.uninitialized.Branch] (CVE-2024-26799)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.7.9-1 or later.
