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: tracepoint: balance regfunc() on
 func_add() failure in tracepoint_add_func() When a tracepoint goes through the 0 -> 1 transition,
 tracepoint_add_func() invokes the subsystem's ext->regfunc() before attempting to install the new probe
 via func_add(). If func_add() then fails (for example, when allocate_probes() cannot allocate a new probe
 array under memory pressure and returns -ENOMEM), the function returns the error without calling the
 matching ext->unregfunc(), leaving the side effects of regfunc() behind with no installed probe to justify
 them. For syscall tracepoints this is particularly unpleasant: syscall_regfunc() bumps
 sys_tracepoint_refcount and sets SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT on every task. After a leaked failure, the refcount is
 stuck at a non-zero value with no consumer, and every task continues paying the syscall trace entry/exit
 overhead until reboot. Other subsystems providing regfunc()/unregfunc() pairs exhibit similarly scoped
 persistent state. Mirror the existing 1 -> 0 cleanup and call ext->unregfunc() in the func_add() error
 path, gated on the same condition used there so the unwind is symmetric with the registration.
 (CVE-2026-46196)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_12 library and its related packages to version 19506.224.7 or later.
