1. Summary:

An update for kernel-alt is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,
which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability
from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux for ARM and IBM Power LE (POWER9) Server (v. 7) - aarch64, noarch, ppc64le, s390x
Red Hat Enterprise Linux for ARM and IBM Power LE (POWER9) Server Optional (v. 7) - aarch64, noarch, ppc64le

3. Description:

The kernel-alt packages provide the Linux kernel version 4.x.

Security Fix(es):

* kernel: lack of check for mmap minimum address in expand_downwards in
mm/mmap.c leads to NULL pointer dereferences exploit on non-SMAP platforms
(CVE-2019-9213)

* kernel: use-after-free in ucma_leave_multicast in
drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c (CVE-2018-14734)

* kernel: Unprivileged users able to inspect kernel stacks of arbitrary
tasks (CVE-2018-17972)

* kernel: TLB flush happens too late on mremap (CVE-2018-18281)

* kernel: Type confusion in drivers/tty/n_tty.c allows for a denial of
service (CVE-2018-18386)

* kernel: userfaultfd bypasses tmpfs file permissions (CVE-2018-18397)

* kernel: Integer overflow in the alarm_timer_nsleep function
(CVE-2018-13053)

* kernel: NULL pointer dereference in xfs_da_shrink_inode function
(CVE-2018-13094)

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.
