RedHat: RHSA-2022-0849:01 Important: kpatch-patch security update
Summary
This is a kernel live patch module which is automatically loaded by the RPM
post-install script to modify the code of a running kernel.
Security Fix(es):
* kernel: Use After Free in unix_gc() which could result in a local
privilege escalation (CVE-2021-0920)
* kernel: local privilege escalation by exploiting the fsconfig syscall
parameter leads to container breakout (CVE-2021-4154)
* kernel: possible privileges escalation due to missing TLB flush
(CVE-2022-0330)
* kernel: remote stack overflow via kernel panic on systems using TIPC may
lead to DoS (CVE-2022-0435)
* kernel: cgroups v1 release_agent feature may allow privilege escalation
(CVE-2022-0492)
* kernel: failing usercopy allows for use-after-free exploitation
(CVE-2022-22942)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS
