Google: sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1, sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_6: security update to 18613.75.4

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 472312

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: icmp: change the order of rate limits
ICMP messages are ratelimited : After the blamed commits, the two rate limiters are applied in this order:
1) host wide ratelimit (icmp_global_allow()) 2) Per destination ratelimit (inetpeer based) In order to
avoid side-channels attacks, we need to apply the per destination check first. This patch makes the
following change : 1) icmp_global_allow() checks if the host wide limit is reached. But credits are not
yet consumed. This is deferred to 3) 2) The per destination limit is checked/updated. This might add a new
node in inetpeer tree. 3) icmp_global_consume() consumes tokens if prior operations succeeded. This means
that host wide ratelimit is still effective in keeping inetpeer tree small even under DDOS. As a bonus, I
removed icmp_global.lock as the fast path can use a lock-free operation. (CVE-2024-47678)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/lakitu-kernel-6_1 library and its related packages to version 18613.75.4 or later.
