medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 468723

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: lockd: Plug nlm_file refcount leak on
 cached nlm_do_fopen() failure The cached-file path in nlm_lookup_file() reaches the found: label
 unconditionally, even when nlm_do_fopen() fails. At that label *result and file->f_count are updated
 before the error is returned. The wrappers nlm3svc_lookup_file() and nlm4svc_lookup_file() then bail out
 of their switch without copying *result back to their caller, so the proc handler's local nlm_file pointer
 remains NULL and the cleanup path skips nlm_release_file(). The f_count increment is never released, and
 nlm_traverse_files() can no longer reap the file because its refcount never returns to zero between
 requests. Short-circuit the cached path so neither *result nor f_count is touched when nlm_do_fopen()
 fails on a hashed nlm_file. (CVE-2026-72218)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_12 library and its related packages to version 19216.655.6 or later.
