Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.159-1

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 459589

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: HID: core: Harden s32ton() against
 conversion to 0 bits Testing by the syzbot fuzzer showed that the HID core gets a shift-out-of-bounds
 exception when it tries to convert a 32-bit quantity to a 0-bit quantity. Ideally this should never occur,
 but there are buggy devices and some might have a report field with size set to zero; we shouldn't reject
 the report or the device just because of that. Instead, harden the s32ton() routine so that it returns a
 reasonable result instead of crashing when it is called with the number of bits set to 0 -- the same as
 what snto32() does. (CVE-2025-38556)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.159-1 or later.
