Google: sys-kernel/csql-kernel-6_1, sys-kernel/tpusev-kernel-6_6: security update to 18613.534.62

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 465894

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: dm-verity: disable recursive forward
error correction There are two problems with the recursive correction: 1. It may cause denial-of-service.
In fec_read_bufs, there is a loop that has 253 iterations. For each iteration, we may call
verity_hash_for_block recursively. There is a limit of 4 nested recursions - that means that there may be
at most 253^4 (4 billion) iterations. Red Hat QE team actually created an image that pushes dm-verity to
this limit - and this image just makes the udev-worker process get stuck in the 'D' state. 2. It doesn't
work. In fec_read_bufs we store data into the variable "fio->bufs", but fio bufs is shared between
recursive invocations, if "verity_hash_for_block" invoked correction recursively, it would overwrite
partially filled fio->bufs. (CVE-2025-71161)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/csql-kernel-6_1 library and its related packages to version 18613.534.62 or later.
