Google: sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1, sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_6: security update to 18613.0.3

low Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 471702

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: tcp: avoid too many retransmit packets
 If a TCP socket is using TCP_USER_TIMEOUT, and the other peer retracted its window to zero,
 tcp_retransmit_timer() can retransmit a packet every two jiffies (2 ms for HZ=1000), for about 4 minutes
 after TCP_USER_TIMEOUT has 'expired'. The fix is to make sure tcp_rtx_probe0_timed_out() takes
 icsk->icsk_user_timeout into account. Before blamed commit, the socket would not timeout after
 icsk->icsk_user_timeout, but would use standard exponential backoff for the retransmits. Also worth noting
 that before commit e89688e3e978 ("net: tcp: fix unexcepted socket die when snd_wnd is 0"), the issue would
 last 2 minutes instead of 4. (CVE-2024-41007)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1 library and its related packages to version 18613.0.3 or later.
