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: netfilter: cttimeout: prevent UAF
 during module unload nf_ct_set_timeout() protects the timeout hook dereference and policy lookup with
 rcu_read_lock(). cttimeout_exit(), however, unregisters the per-net operations before it clears the hook.
 This allows the following interleaving: CPU 0 CPU 1 cttimeout_exit() nf_ct_set_timeout()
 unregister_pernet_subsys() rcu_read_lock() kfree(pernet) h = nf_ct_timeout_hook h->timeout_find_get()
 nfct_timeout_pernet() The hook still points to ctnl_timeout_find_get() when CPU 1 looks up the already
 freed per-net timeout list. KASAN reported: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in ctnl_timeout_find_get Read

 [nfnetlink_cttimeout] Clear the hook and wait for existing readers before unregistering the per-net
 operations. This blocks new policy lookups and ensures readers that observed the hook finish before the
 per-net storage is freed. (CVE-2026-97609)

Solution

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