These updated kernel packages include several security issues and numerous
bug fixes, some of which you can see below. Space precludes documenting
all of these bug fixes in this advisory. To see the complete list of bug
fixes, users are directed to the related Knowledge Article.

Security Fixes:

  * A flaw was found in the way certain interfaces of the Linux kernel's
Infiniband subsystem used write() as bi-directional ioctl() replacement,
which could lead to insufficient memory security checks when being invoked
using the splice() system call. A local unprivileged user on a system
with either Infiniband hardware present or RDMA Userspace Connection
Manager Access module explicitly loaded, could use this flaw to escalate
their privileges on the system. (CVE-2016-4565, Important)

  * A race condition flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's SCTP
implementation handled sctp_accept() during the processing of heartbeat
timeout events. A remote attacker could use this flaw to prevent further
connections to be accepted by the SCTP server running on the system,
resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2015-8767, Moderate)

Red Hat would like to thank Jann Horn for reporting CVE-2016-4565.

Bug Fixes:

  * When Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) devices were removed or
deleted, a system crash could occur due to a race condition between listing
all SCSI devices and SCSI device removal. The provided patch ensures that
the starting node for the klist_iter_init_node() function is actually a
member of the list before using it. As a result, a system crash no longer
occurs in the described scenario. (BZ#1333403)

  * This update offers a reworked series of patches for the resizable hash
table (rhashtable) including a number of backported bug fixes and
enhancements from upstream. (BZ#1328801)

  * Previously, the same value of the mperf Model-Specific Register (MSR)
read twice in a row could lead to a kernel panic due to the divide-by-zero
error. The provided patch fixes this bug, and the kernel now handles two
identical values of mperf gracefully. (BZ#1334438)

  * When a transparent proxy application was running and the number of
established connections on the computer exceeded one million, unrelated
processes, such as curl or ssh, were unable to bind to a local IP on the
box to initiate a connection. The provided patch fixes the cooperation of
the REUSEADDR/NOREUSEADDR socket option, a ...
