Updated kernel-rt packages that fix one security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section.
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system.
Red Hat would like to thank the Perception Point research team for reporting this issue.
All kernel-rt users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important
security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base
score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the
CVE link in the References section.
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.
* A use-after-free flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's key
management subsystem handled keyring object reference counting in
certain error path of the join_session_keyring() function. A local,
unprivileged user could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on
the system. (CVE-2016-0728, Important)
