Summary

Upstream version 6.6.14 with many bugfixes and at least the following security fixes: An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in smb2_dump_detail in fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c in the Linux Kernel. This issue could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak internal kernel information. (CVE-2023-6610) An unprivileged guest can cause Denial of Service (DoS) of the host by sending network packets to the backend, causing the backend to crash. Data corruption or privilege escalation have not been ruled out. https://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advisory-448.html (CVE-2023-46838)
