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

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 472372

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: vhost/vsock: always initialize
seqpacket_allow There are two issues around seqpacket_allow: 1. seqpacket_allow is not initialized when
socket is created. Thus if features are never set, it will be read uninitialized. 2. if
VIRTIO_VSOCK_F_SEQPACKET is set and then cleared, then seqpacket_allow will not be cleared appropriately
(existing apps I know about don't usually do this but it's legal and there's no way to be sure no one
relies on this). To fix: - initialize seqpacket_allow after allocation - set it unconditionally in
set_features (CVE-2024-43873)

Solution

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