    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that     may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information     leaks.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version     6.1.177-1~deb11u1.  This version additionally updates the Microsoft     Azure Network Adapter (mana) driver, and includes many more bug fixes     from stable update 6.1.177.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux-6.1 packages.

    For the detailed security status of linux-6.1 please refer to     its security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/linux-6.1

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - crypto: qat - remove unused character device and IOCTLs The QAT driver exposes a character device     (qat_adf_ctl) with IOCTLs for device configuration, start, stop, status query and enumeration. These     IOCTLs are not part of any public uAPI header and have no known in-tree or out-of-tree users. Device     lifecycle is already managed via sysfs. The ioctl interface also increases the attack surface and is the     subject of a number of bug reports. Remove the character device, the IOCTL definitions, and the related     data structures (adf_dev_status_info, adf_user_cfg_key_val, adf_user_cfg_section, adf_user_cfg_ctl_data).
    Drop the now-unused adf_cfg_user.h header and strip adf_ctl_drv.c down to the minimal     module_init/module_exit hooks for workqueue, AER, and crypto/compression algorithm registration. Clean up     leftover dead code that was only reachable from the removed IOCTL paths: adf_cfg_del_all(),     adf_devmgr_verify_id(), adf_devmgr_get_num_dev(), adf_devmgr_get_dev_by_id(), adf_get_vf_real_id() and the     unused ADF_CFG macros. Additionally, drop the entry associated to QAT IOCTLs in ioctl-number.rst.
    (CVE-2026-64529)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

An update of the linux package has been released.
