RHSA-2022:7933 - Security Advisory

Topic

An update for kernel-rt is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

Description

The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements.

Security Fix(es):

• use after free in SUNRPC subsystem (CVE-2022-28893)
• use-after-free due to improper update of reference count in net/sched/cls_u32.c (CVE-2022-29581)
• Intel: RetBleed Arbitrary Speculative Code Execution with Return Instructions (CVE-2022-29901)
• DoS in nfqnl_mangle in net/netfilter/nfnetlink_queue.c (CVE-2022-36946)
• nf_tables disallow binding to already bound chain (CVE-2022-39190)
