1. Summary:
An update for kernel-rt is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.
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. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Real Time (v. 8) - x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Real Time for NFV (v. 8) - x86_64
3. Description:
The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables
fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements.
Security Fix(es):
* kernel: use-after-free in __blk_add_trace in kernel/trace/blktrace.c
(CVE-2019-19768)
* kernel: nfs: NULL pointer dereference due to an anomalized NFS message
sequence (CVE-2018-16871)
* kernel: memory leak in the kernel_read_file function in fs/exec.c allows
to cause a denial of service (CVE-2019-8980)
* kernel: unprivileged users able to create RAW sockets in AF_IEEE802154
network protocol. (CVE-2019-17053)
* kernel: unprivileged users able to create RAW sockets in AF_ISDN network
protocol. (CVE-2019-17055)
* kernel: integer overflow in tcp_ack_update_rtt in net/ipv4/tcp_input.c
(CVE-2019-18805)
* kernel: information leak bug caused by a malicious USB device in the
drivers/net/can/usb/peak_usb/pcan_usb_core.c driver (CVE-2019-19534)
* kernel: some ipv6 protocols not encrypted over ipsec tunnel.
(CVE-2020-1749)
* Kernel: net: using kernel space address bits to derive IP ID may
potentially break KASLR (CVE-2019-10639)
* kernel: An out-of-bounds read in drivers/scsi/qedi/qedi_dbg.c leading to
crash or information disclosure (CVE-2019-15090)
* kernel: a NULL pointer dereference in
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/usb.c leads to a crash (CVE-2019-15099)
* kernel: Null pointer dereference in the sound/usb/line6/pcm.c
(CVE-2019-15221)
* kernel: Two memory leaks in the mwifiex_pcie_init_evt_ring() function in
drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/pcie.c allows for a DoS
(CVE-2019-19057)
* kernel: Memory leaks in drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_hst.c in the
Linux kernel (DOS) (CVE-2019-19073)
* kernel: a memory leak in the ath9k management function in allows local
DoS (CVE-2019-19074)
* kernel: when cpu.cfs_quota_us is used allows attackers to cause a denial
of service against non-cpu-bound applications (CVE-2019-19922)
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):
* RT: update RT source tree to the RHEL-8.2 tree (BZ#1708716)
* KVM-RT guest fails boot with emulatorsched (BZ#1712781)
* 8 vCPU guest need max latency < 20 us with stress [RT-8.2] (BZ#1757165)
* Request nx_huge_pages=N as default value to avoid kvm-rt guest large
latency spike [rt-8] (BZ#1788352)
* RT: Add rpm Provide of 'kernel' to indicate that this is a kernel package
(BZ#1796284)
* [RHEL8] RT kernel signed by test certificate and not Red Hat Secure Boot
(BZ#1806871)
Enhancement(s):
* update to the upstream 5.x RT patchset (BZ#1680161)
