Echo: linux: security update to 6.12.85-1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 465380

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: usb: gadget: f_eem: Fix net_device
lifecycle with device_move The net_device is allocated during function instance creation and registered
during the bind phase with the gadget device as its sysfs parent. When the function unbinds, the parent
device is destroyed, but the net_device survives, resulting in dangling sysfs symlinks: console:/ # ls -l
/sys/class/net/usb0 lrwxrwxrwx ... /sys/class/net/usb0 -> /sys/devices/platform/.../gadget.0/net/usb0
console:/ # ls -l /sys/devices/platform/.../gadget.0/net/usb0 ls: .../gadget.0/net/usb0: No such file or
directory Use device_move() to reparent the net_device between the gadget device tree and
/sys/devices/virtual across bind and unbind cycles. During the final unbind, calling device_move(NULL)
moves the net_device to the virtual device tree before the gadget device is destroyed. On rebinding,
device_move() reparents the device back under the new gadget, ensuring proper sysfs topology and power
management ordering. To maintain compatibility with legacy composite drivers (e.g., multi.c), the bound
flag is used to indicate whether the network device is shared and pre-registered during the legacy
driver's bind phase. (CVE-2026-31724)
