Linux kernel headers have no impact on containers
published 1 year ago
Summary
The Linux kernel package in question only provides header files, which are not executable code. In container deployments, kernel vulnerabilities do not affect the containers because they share the host kernel, not the headers. No immediate action is needed, but continue standard security updates for the host system.
What to do
- Update echo linux to version 1.
