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: igmp: convert struct ip_sf_list to RCU
Commit 23d2b94043ca ("igmp: Add ip_mc_list lock in ip_check_mc_rcu") added spin_lock_bh(&im->lock) to
ip_check_mc_rcu() to prevent a use-after-free while iterating im->sources during concurrent deletions.
However, ip_check_mc_rcu() is called from RCU read-side critical sections in packet receive and route
lookup fast paths (e.g. __mkroute_output(), ip_route_input_rcu(), and __udp4_lib_rcv()). When
igmpv3_send_cr() or igmpv3_send_report() holds &pmc->lock and calls add_grec() -> igmpv3_newpack() ->
ip_route_output_ports(), an XFRM policy matching a multicast destination triggers xfrm_tmpl_resolve_one()
-> xfrm4_get_saddr() -> __mkroute_output() -> ip_check_mc_rcu(). This attempts to acquire &im->lock while
&pmc->lock is already held on the same CPU, triggering a lockdep recursive locking warning / deadlock. Fix
this by converting IPv4 struct ip_sf_list to RCU, mirroring the IPv6 implementation in net/ipv6/mcast.c:
1. Add struct rcu_head to struct ip_sf_list and annotate sf_next, sources, and tomb as __rcu pointers. 2.
Use rcu_assign_pointer() and kfree_rcu() for list updates and deletions. 3. Remove spin_lock_bh(&im->lock)
from ip_check_mc_rcu() and traverse im->sources locklessly with for_each_psf_rcu(), reading and writing
counter fields with READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE(). Note: RCU conversion of /proc/net/mcfilter will be done
in a separate patch. (CVE-2026-98103)

Solution

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