Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.180-1

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 465525

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: Input: goodix - clamp the device-
 reported contact count goodix_ts_read_input_report() copies the number of touch points reported by the
 device into an on-stack buffer u8 point_data[2 + GOODIX_MAX_CONTACT_SIZE * GOODIX_MAX_CONTACTS]; which is
 sized for at most GOODIX_MAX_CONTACTS (10) contacts. The only runtime check bounds the per-interrupt count
 against ts->max_touch_num, but that value is taken verbatim from a 4-bit field of the device configuration
 block and is never clamped: ts->max_touch_num = ts->config[MAX_CONTACTS_LOC] & 0x0f; The nibble can be
 0..15, so a malfunctioning, malicious or counterfeit controller (or an attacker tampering with the I2C
 bus) can advertise up to 15 contacts. goodix_ts_read_input_report() then accepts a touch_num of up to 15
 and the second goodix_i2c_read() writes ts->contact_size * (touch_num - 1) bytes past the one-contact
 header into point_data - up to 30 bytes (45 with the 9-byte report format) beyond the 92-byte buffer: a
 stack out-of-bounds write. Clamp max_touch_num to GOODIX_MAX_CONTACTS, the number of contacts point_data[]
 is sized for, when reading it from the configuration. (CVE-2026-64274)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.180-1 or later.
