Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.170-1

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 461583

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: xfs: avoid dereferencing log items
 after push callbacks After xfsaild_push_item() calls iop_push(), the log item may have been freed if the
 AIL lock was dropped during the push. Background inode reclaim or the dquot shrinker can free the log item
 while the AIL lock is not held, and the tracepoints in the switch statement dereference the log item after
 iop_push() returns. Fix this by capturing the log item type, flags, and LSN before calling
 xfsaild_push_item(), and introducing a new xfs_ail_push_class trace event class that takes these pre-
 captured values and the ailp pointer instead of the log item pointer. (CVE-2026-31453)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.170-1 or later.
