Google: sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_12, sys-kernel/csql-kernel-6_6: security update to 19216.220.174

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 467564

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: netfilter: ctnetlink: use netlink
policy range checks Replace manual range and mask validations with netlink policy annotations in ctnetlink
code paths, so that the netlink core rejects invalid values early and can generate extack errors. -
CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP_STATE: reject values > TCP_CONNTRACK_SYN_SENT2 at policy level, removing the manual >=
TCP_CONNTRACK_MAX check. - CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP_WSCALE_ORIGINAL/REPLY: reject values > TCP_MAX_WSCALE (14).
The normal TCP option parsing path already clamps to this value, but the ctnetlink path accepted 0-255,
causing undefined behavior when used as a u32 shift count. - CTA_FILTER_ORIG_FLAGS/REPLY_FLAGS: use
NLA_POLICY_MASK with CTA_FILTER_F_ALL, removing the manual mask checks. - CTA_EXPECT_FLAGS: use
NLA_POLICY_MASK with NF_CT_EXPECT_MASK, adding a new mask define grouping all valid expect flags.
Extracted from a broader nf-next patch by Florian Westphal, scoped to ctnetlink for the fixes tree.
(CVE-2026-31495)
