Echo: linux: security update to 6.12.41-1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 461998

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: HID: nintendo: avoid bluetooth
suspend/resume stalls Ensure we don't stall or panic the kernel when using bluetooth-connected
controllers. This was reported as an issue on android devices using kernel 6.6 due to the resume hook
which had been added for usb joycons. First, set a new state value to JOYCON_CTLR_STATE_SUSPENDED in a
newly-added nintendo_hid_suspend. This makes sure we will not stall out the kernel waiting for input
reports during led classdev suspend. The stalls could happen if connectivity is unreliable or lost to the
controller prior to suspend. Second, since we lose connectivity during suspend, do not try joycon_init()
for bluetooth controllers in the nintendo_hid_resume path. Tested via multiple suspend/resume flows when
using the controller both in USB and bluetooth modes. (CVE-2025-38507)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.12.41-1 or later.
