Updated kernel packages fix security vulnerabilities

This kernel update is based on upstream 5.15.15 and fixes at least the following security issues: A data leak flaw was found in the way XFSIOCALLOCSP IOCTL in the XFS filesystem allowed for size increase of files with unaligned size. A local attacker could use this flaw to leak data on the XFS...

CVE-2022-0264

A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's eBPF verifier when handling internal data structures. Internal memory locations could be returned to userspace. A local attacker with the permissions to insert eBPF code to the kernel can use this to leak internal kernel memory details defeating som...

Remote Code Execution (RCE)

linux is vulnerable to remote code execution. The vulnerability exist due to an out of bounds memory access and a lack of sanitization handling of eBPF programs allowing an attacker to inject maliciously crafted code into the system...

Denial Of Service (DoS)

Linux is vulnerable to denial of service. The vulnerability exists in the preallocelemsandfreelist function of kernel/bpf/stackmap.c, allowing unprivileged users to trigger an eBPF multiplication integer overflow with a resultant out-of-bounds write...

CVE-2021-4204

An out-of-bounds OOB memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel's eBPF due to an Improper Input Validation. This flaw allows a local attacker with a special privilege to crash the system or leak internal information. Mitigation The default Red Hat Enterprise Linux kernel prevents unprivileg...

USN-5210-2: Linux kernel regression

USN-5210-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel. Unfortunately, that update introduced a regression that caused failures to boot in environments with AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization SEV enabled. This update fixes the problem. We apologize for the inconvenience. Original advisory details:...
