Google: sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_18, sys-kernel/csql-kernel-6_18, sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_18, sys-kernel/lakitu-nc-kernel-6_18: security update to 19907.0.0

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 471236

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: iommu/dma: Do not try to iommu_map a 0
length region in swiotlb iommu_dma_iova_link_swiotlb() processes a mapping that is unaligned in three
parts, the head, middle and trailer. If the middle is empty because there are no aligned pages it will
call down to iommu_map() with a 0 size which the iommupt implementation will fail as illegal. It then
tries to do an error unwind and starts from the wrong spot corrupting the mapping so the eventual
destruction triggers a WARN_ON. Check for 0 length and avoid mapping and use offset not 0 as the starting
point to unlink. This is frequently triggered by using some kinds of thunderbolt NVMe drives that trigger
forced SWIOTLB for unaligned memory. NVMe seems to pass in oddly aligned buffers for the passthrough
commands from smartctl that hit this condition. (CVE-2026-53164)

Solution

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