Google: sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1, sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_6: security update to 18613.75.4

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 465864

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: fsnotify: clear PARENT_WATCHED flags
 lazily In some setups directories can have many (usually negative) dentries. Hence
 __fsnotify_update_child_dentry_flags() function can take a significant amount of time. Since the bulk of
 this function happens under inode->i_lock this causes a significant contention on the lock when we remove
 the watch from the directory as the __fsnotify_update_child_dentry_flags() call from
 fsnotify_recalc_mask() races with __fsnotify_update_child_dentry_flags() calls from __fsnotify_parent()
 happening on children. This can lead upto softlockup reports reported by users. Fix the problem by calling
 fsnotify_update_children_dentry_flags() to set PARENT_WATCHED flags only when parent starts watching
 children. When parent stops watching children, clear false positive PARENT_WATCHED flags lazily in
 __fsnotify_parent() for each accessed child. (CVE-2024-47660)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1 library and its related packages to version 18613.75.4 or later.
