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: net/sched: sch_qfq component can be exploited if in qfq_change_agg function happens qfq_enqueue overhead (CVE-2023-3611)

  • kernel: net/sched: cls_fw component can be exploited as result of failure in tcf_change_indev function (CVE-2023-3776)

  • kernel: net/sched: Use-after-free vulnerabilities in the net/sched classifiers: cls_fw, cls_u32 and cls_route (CVE-2023-4128, CVE-2023-4206, CVE-2023-4207, CVE-2023-4208)

  • hw: Intel: Gather Data Sampling (GDS) side channel vulnerability (CVE-2022-40982)
