critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 469778

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: fs/ntfs3: validate ef->size covers the
record's name and value When an EA record has a non-zero ef->size, ntfs_read_ea() only checks that the
record fits in the remaining buffer (ea_size > bytes), not that ef->size is large enough to hold the
record's own name_len + 1 + elength. A crafted image can pass validation with, e.g., ef->size = 24 but
elength = 0xffff. ntfs_get_ea() then trusts elength and copies it out of the undersized record, reading
past the kmalloc(info->size) allocation and leaking heap memory to userspace via getxattr(): BUG: KASAN:
slab-out-of-bounds in ntfs_get_ea (fs/ntfs3/xattr.c:302) Read of size 65535 at addr ffff888100794550 by
task exploit __asan_memcpy (mm/kasan/shadow.c:105) ntfs_get_ea (fs/ntfs3/xattr.c:302) ntfs_getxattr
(fs/ntfs3/xattr.c:848) __vfs_getxattr (fs/xattr.c:441) vfs_getxattr (fs/xattr.c:474) do_getxattr
(fs/xattr.c:800) path_getxattrat (fs/xattr.c:868) do_syscall_64 (arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94) The buggy
address is located 80 bytes inside of allocated 84-byte region in cache kmalloc-96 Compute the size the
record needs and require ef->size to cover it. (CVE-2026-89779)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_12 library and its related packages to version 19506.505.8 or later.
