Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.180-1

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 460959

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: crypto: qat - validate RSA CRT
component lengths The generic RSA key parser (rsa_helper.c) bounds each CRT component (p, q, dp, dq, qinv)
by the modulus size n_sz, but qat_rsa_setkey_crt() allocates half-size DMA buffers (key_sz / 2) and right-
aligns each component with: memcpy(dst + half_key_sz - len, src, len) When a CRT component is larger than
half_key_sz the subtraction underflows and memcpy writes past the DMA buffer, causing memory corruption.
Add a len > half_key_sz check next to the existing !len check for each of the five CRT components so the
driver falls back to the non-CRT path instead of writing out of bounds. (CVE-2026-64304)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.180-1 or later.
