Google: sys-kernel/csql-kernel-6_1, sys-kernel/csql-kernel-6_6: security update to 18613.164.4

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 466178

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 array: fix releasing a faulty array
block twice in dm_array_cursor_end When dm_bm_read_lock() fails due to locking or checksum errors, it
releases the faulty block implicitly while leaving an invalid output pointer behind. The caller of
dm_bm_read_lock() should not operate on this invalid dm_block pointer, or it will lead to undefined
result. For example, the dm_array_cursor incorrectly caches the invalid pointer on reading a faulty array
block, causing a double release in dm_array_cursor_end(), then hitting the BUG_ON in dm-bufio cache_put().
Reproduce steps: 1. initialize a cache device dmsetup create cmeta --table "0 8192 linear /dev/sdc 0"
dmsetup create cdata --table "0 65536 linear /dev/sdc 8192" dmsetup create corig --table "0 524288 linear
/dev/sdc $262144" dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/cmeta bs=4k count=1 dmsetup create cache --table "0
524288 cache /dev/mapper/cmeta \ /dev/mapper/cdata /dev/mapper/corig 128 2 metadata2 writethrough smq 0"
2. wipe the second array block offline dmsteup remove cache cmeta cdata corig mapping_root=$(dd
if=/dev/sdc bs=1c count=8 skip=192 \ 2>/dev/null | hexdump -e '1/8 "%u\n"') ablock=$(dd if=/dev/sdc bs=1c
count=8 skip=$((4096*mapping_root+2056)) \ 2>/dev/null | hexdump -e '1/8 "%u\n"') dd if=/dev/zero
of=/dev/sdc bs=4k count=1 seek=$ablock 3. try reopen the cache device dmsetup create cmeta --table "0 8192
linear /dev/sdc 0" dmsetup create cdata --table "0 65536 linear /dev/sdc 8192" dmsetup create corig
--table "0 524288 linear /dev/sdc $262144" dmsetup create cache --table "0 524288 cache /dev/mapper/cmeta
\ /dev/mapper/cdata /dev/mapper/corig 128 2 metadata2 writethrough smq 0" Kernel logs: (snip) device-

bufio.c:638! Fix by setting the cached block pointer to NULL on errors. In addition to the reproducer
described above, this fix can be verified using the "array_cursor/damaged" test in dm-unit: dm-unit run

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/csql-kernel-6_1 library and its related packages to version 18613.164.4 or later.
