medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 469767

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: tun: zero the whole vnet header in
tun_put_user() tun_put_user() declares an on-stack struct virtio_net_hdr_v1_hash_tunnel without zeroing
it. For a non-tunnel skb, virtio_net_hdr_tnl_from_skb() only initializes the first 10 bytes (sizeof(struct
virtio_net_hdr)), leaving bytes 10..23 (num_buffers and the hash/tunnel fields) as stack garbage. An
unprivileged user can set the vnet header size to 24 with TUNSETVNETHDRSZ, so __tun_vnet_hdr_put() copies
all 24 bytes of the partially-initialized struct to userspace, leaking 14 bytes of kernel stack on every
read of a non-tunnel packet. Fix it the same way tun_get_user() already does by zeroing the whole header
right after declaration. (CVE-2026-52940)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_18 library and its related packages to version 19907.0.0 or later.
