RedHat: RHSA-2022-6991:01 Important: kernel-rt security and bug fix update
Summary
The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables
fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements.
Security Fix(es):
* A use-after-free in cls_route filter implementation may lead to privilege
escalation (CVE-2022-2588)
* Information leak in the IPv6 implementation (CVE-2021-45485)
* Information leak in the IPv4 implementation (CVE-2021-45486)
* 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):
* update RT source tree to the RHEL-8.4.z12 source tree (BZ#2119160)
* using __this_cpu_add() in preemptible [00000000] - caller is
__mod_memcg_lruvec_state+0x69/0x1c0 [None8.4.0.z] (BZ#2124454)
