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: bpf: Reject non-scalar bpf_loop
 iteration counts bpf_loop() declares its nr_loops argument as ARG_ANYTHING. Privileged programs may pass
 pointer values to such arguments, so check_func_arg() lets a pointer-valued R1 reach the helper-specific
 checks. Since commit bb124da69c47 ("bpf: keep track of max number of bpf_loop callback iterations"), the
 verifier marks R1 precise and reads its upper bound to limit callback simulation. Precision backtracking
 only accepts scalar registers, so passing a pointer instead triggers the "backtracking misuse" verifier
 warning. Kernels with panic_on_warn enabled subsequently panic. Introduce ARG_SCALAR for helper arguments
 that only accept scalar values and use it for bpf_loop() nr_loops. Generic helper argument validation then
 rejects pointers before loop inlining and precision processing. (CVE-2026-98007)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_12 library and its related packages to version 19999.44.106 or later.
