3. Description:
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.
Security Fix(es):
* kernel: Use-after-free in __blk_drain_queue() function in
block/blk-core.c (CVE-2018-20856)
* kernel: use-after-free in fs/xfs/xfs_super.c (CVE-2018-20976)
* kernel: insufficient input validation in kernel mode driver in Intel i915
graphics leads to privilege escalation (CVE-2019-11085)
* kernel: heap-based buffer overflow in mwifiex_process_country_ie()
function in drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/sta_ioctl.c
(CVE-2019-14895)
* kernel: buffer overflow in cfg80211_mgd_wext_giwessid in
net/wireless/wext-sme.c (CVE-2019-17133)
* kernel: rtl_p2p_noa_ie in drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/ps.c in
the Linux kernel lacks a certain upper-bound check, leading to a buffer
overflow (CVE-2019-17666)
* kernel: fix race condition between mmget_not_zero()/get_task_mm() and
core dumping (CVE-2019-11599)
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):
* [Hyper-V][RHEL7.6]Hyper-V guest waiting indefinitely for RCU callback
when removing a mem cgroup (BZ#1783175)
Enhancement(s):
* Selective backport: perf: Sync with upstream v4.16 (BZ#1782751)
