INSTALLING THE UPDATES

We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack running RHCK 8 install
these updates.

On systems that have "autoinstall = yes" in /etc/uptrack/uptrack.conf,
these updates will be installed automatically and you do not need to
take any action.

Alternatively, you can install these updates by running:

# /usr/sbin/uptrack-upgrade -y

DESCRIPTION

* Note: Oracle will not be providing an update for CVE-2020-26541.

This CVE is only applicable at boot time, so by the time Ksplice live updates
are applied, the relevant code has already ran.

Orabug: 31961118

* CVE-2021-33034: Use-after-free when tearing down bluetooth HCI channel.

A race condition in the bluetooth Host Controller Interface code could
result in a use-after-free. A malicious device might exploit this to
write data to an arbitrary kernel address, potentially allowing code
execution under control of the device.
