Summary: An update for kernel is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. 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.

Description: The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Security Fix(es): * kernel: MIDI driver race condition leads to a double-free (CVE-2018-10902) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other relatedinformation, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section. Bug Fix(es): * Previously backported upstream patch caused a change in the behavior of page fault handler. As a consequence, applications compiled through GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) version 4.4.7 sometimes generated stack access exceeding the 64K limit. Running such applications subsequently triggered a segmentation fault. With this update, the 64k limit check in the page fault handler has been removed. As a result, running the affected applications no longer triggers the segmentation fault in the described scenario. Note that removing the limit check does not impact the integrity of the kernel itself. (BZ#1644401) 4. Solution: For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect. 5.
