Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.162-1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 461443

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: mscc: ocelot: Fix crash when
 adding interface under a lag Commit 15faa1f67ab4 ("lan966x: Fix crash when adding interface under a lag")
 fixed a similar issue in the lan966x driver caused by a NULL pointer dereference. The
 ocelot_set_aggr_pgids() function in the ocelot driver has similar logic and is susceptible to the same
 crash. This issue specifically affects the ocelot_vsc7514.c frontend, which leaves unused ports as NULL
 pointers. The felix_vsc9959.c frontend is unaffected as it uses the DSA framework which registers all
 ports. Fix this by checking if the port pointer is valid before accessing it. (CVE-2026-22982)

Solution

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