Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.135-1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 463367

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: nfsd: decrease sc_count directly if
fail to queue dl_recall A deadlock warning occurred when invoking nfs4_put_stid following a failed
dl_recall queue operation: T1 T2 nfs4_laundromat nfs4_get_client_reaplist nfs4_anylock_blockers
__break_lease spin_lock // ctx->flc_lock spin_lock // clp->cl_lock nfs4_lockowner_has_blockers
locks_owner_has_blockers spin_lock // flctx->flc_lock nfsd_break_deleg_cb nfsd_break_one_deleg
nfs4_put_stid refcount_dec_and_lock spin_lock // clp->cl_lock When a file is opened, an nfs4_delegation is
allocated with sc_count initialized to 1, and the file_lease holds a reference to the delegation. The
file_lease is then associated with the file through kernel_setlease. The disassociation is performed in
nfsd4_delegreturn via the following call chain: nfsd4_delegreturn --> destroy_delegation -->
destroy_unhashed_deleg --> nfs4_unlock_deleg_lease --> kernel_setlease --> generic_delete_lease The
corresponding sc_count reference will be released after this disassociation. Since nfsd_break_one_deleg
executes while holding the flc_lock, the disassociation process becomes blocked when attempting to acquire
flc_lock in generic_delete_lease. This means: 1) sc_count in nfsd_break_one_deleg will not be decremented
to 0; 2) The nfs4_put_stid called by nfsd_break_one_deleg will not attempt to acquire cl_lock; 3)
Consequently, no deadlock condition is created. Given that sc_count in nfsd_break_one_deleg remains non-
zero, we can safely perform refcount_dec on sc_count directly. This approach effectively avoids triggering
deadlock warnings. (CVE-2025-37871)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.135-1 or later.
