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

Security Fix(es):

  • Kernel: KVM: MMU potential stack buffer overrun during page walks (CVE-2017-12188, Important)

  • Kernel: KVM: debug exception via syscall emulation (CVE-2017-7518, Moderate)

Bug Fix(es):

  • The kernel-rt packages have been upgraded to the 3.10.0-693.21.1 source tree, which provides a number of bug fixes over the previous version. (BZ#1537671)
