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: locking/rtmutex: Skip remove_waiter()
when waiter is not enqueued syzbot triggered the following splat in remove_waiter() via
FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE_PI: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000a88-0x0000000000000a8f]
class_raw_spinlock_constructor remove_waiter+0x159/0x1200 kernel/locking/rtmutex.c:1561
rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock+0x103/0x120 futex_requeue+0x10e4/0x20d0 __x64_sys_futex+0x34f/0x4d0
task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() does not arm the waiter upon deadlock detection, leaving waiter->task nil, where
3bfdc63936dd ("rtmutex: Use waiter::task instead of current in remove_waiter()") made this fatal.
Furthermore, rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock() should not be calling into remove_waiter() upon a successfully
grabbing the rtmutex. 1a1fb985f2e2 ("futex: Handle early deadlock return correctly"), moved the
remove_waiter() out of __rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock() (where 'ret' was only ever 0 or < 0) into the
wrapper. Tighten this check to account for try_to_take_rt_mutex(). (CVE-2026-53163)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_12 library and its related packages to version 19506.448.8 or later.
