Title:RHSA-2022:5937: kernel security and bug fix update (Moderate)
Description:The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system.

Security Fix(es):

  • Incomplete cleanup of multi-core shared buffers (aka SBDR) (CVE-2022-21123)

  • Incomplete cleanup of microarchitectural fill buffers (aka SBDS) (CVE-2022-21125)

  • Incomplete cleanup in specific special register write operations (aka DRPW) (CVE-2022-21166)

    For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

    Bug Fix(es):

  • SolarFlare sfc spurious TX completion (BZ#1793280)

  • Page allocation failure on cryptsetup open (BZ#2072970)

  • The kernel-rt crashes where one task is indefinitely looping in __start_cfs_bandwidth() with the cfs_b->lock spinlock being held (BZ#2077346)

  • While using PTimekeeper the qede driver produces excessive log messages (BZ#2080646)

  • The kernel crashes due to a GPF happens in mutex_spin_on_owner(). The known RDMA/cma bug that was introduced with a patch from upstream commit 722c7b2bfead is the possible cause. (BZ#2085425)

  • Running LTP testcase creat09 fails showing related to 'cve-2018-13405' (BZ#2089360)

  • Crash when releasing inode which was on unmouted superblock (BZ#2096884)
