Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.176-1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 461433

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: nilfs2: reject zero bd_oblocknr in
nilfs_ioctl_mark_blocks_dirty() nilfs_ioctl_mark_blocks_dirty() uses bd_oblocknr to detect dead blocks by
comparing it with the current block number bd_blocknr. If they differ, the block is considered dead and
skipped. However, bd_oblocknr should never be 0 since block 0 typically stores the primary superblock and
is never a valid GC target block. A corrupted ioctl request with bd_oblocknr set to 0 causes the
comparison to incorrectly match when the lookup returns -ENOENT and sets bd_blocknr to 0, bypassing the
dead block check and calling nilfs_bmap_mark() on a non-existent block. This causes
nilfs_btree_do_lookup() to return -ENOENT, triggering the WARN_ON(ret == -ENOENT). Fix this by rejecting
ioctl requests with bd_oblocknr set to 0 at the beginning of each iteration. [ryusuke: slightly modified
