Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.162-1

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 459742

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: net: hv_netvsc: reject RSS hash key
 programming without RX indirection table RSS configuration requires a valid RX indirection table. When the
 device reports a single receive queue, rndis_filter_device_add() does not allocate an indirection table,
 accepting RSS hash key updates in this state leads to a hang. Fix this by gating netvsc_set_rxfh() on
 ndc->rx_table_sz and return -EOPNOTSUPP when the table is absent. This aligns set_rxfh with the device
 capabilities and prevents incorrect behavior. (CVE-2026-23054)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.162-1 or later.
