Echo: linux: security update to 6.1.162-1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 465899

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: uacce: ensure safe queue release with
 state management Directly calling `put_queue` carries risks since it cannot guarantee that resources of
 `uacce_queue` have been fully released beforehand. So adding a `stop_queue` operation for the
 UACCE_CMD_PUT_Q command and leaving the `put_queue` operation to the final resource release ensures
 safety. Queue states are defined as follows: - UACCE_Q_ZOMBIE: Initial state - UACCE_Q_INIT: After opening
 `uacce` - UACCE_Q_STARTED: After `start` is issued via `ioctl` When executing `poweroff -f` in virt while
 accelerator are still working, `uacce_fops_release` and `uacce_remove` may execute concurrently. This can
 cause `uacce_put_queue` within `uacce_fops_release` to access a NULL `ops` pointer. Therefore, add state
 checks to prevent accessing freed pointers. (CVE-2026-23063)

Solution

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.162-1 or later.
