3. Description:

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.

* A use-after-free flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's key
management subsystem handled keyring object reference counting in certain
error path of the join_session_keyring() function. A local, unprivileged
user could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system.
(CVE-2016-0728, Important)
