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: vsock/virtio: flush works in
dependency order virtio_vsock_remove() stops the virtqueues and then flushes each work item before freeing
the enclosing virtio_vsock. The current order does not account for dependencies between those items:
tx_work may queue send_pkt_work, and send_pkt_work may queue rx_work. In particular, send_pkt_work can set
restart_rx and release tx_lock. The remove path can then stop the queues and flush rx_work before
send_pkt_work queues it. Although the later send_pkt_work flush waits for that producer to finish, nothing
waits for the newly queued rx_work, so kfree(vsock) can race with it. KASAN reported: BUG: KASAN: slab-

Flush the works in producer-to-consumer order. virtio_vsock_vqs_del() has already disabled the queue
callbacks and cleared the run flags, so after tx_work and send_pkt_work are drained, no source remains
that can queue rx_work after its flush. (CVE-2026-80932)

Solution

Update the sys-kernel/cchost-kernel-6_12 library and its related packages to version 19506.505.8 or later.
