3. Description:
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.
Security Fix(es):
* kernel: race condition in net/can/bcm.c leads to local privilege
escalation (CVE-2021-3609)
* kernel: Improper handling of VM_IO|VM_PFNMAP vmas in KVM can bypass RO
checks (CVE-2021-22543)
* kernel: out-of-bounds write in xt_compat_target_from_user() in
net/netfilter/x_tables.c (CVE-2021-22555)
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):
* Urgent: Missing dptf_power.ko module in RHEL8 (BZ#1968381)
* [mlx5] kdump over NFS fails: mlx5 driver gives error "Stop room 95 is
bigger than the SQ size 64" (BZ#1969909)
* BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000
in bluetooth hci_error_reset on intel-tigerlake-h01 (BZ#1972564)
* Update CIFS to kernel 5.10 (BZ#1973637)
* Backport "tick/nohz: Conditionally restart tick on idle exit" to RHEL 8.5
(BZ#1978710)
* Significant performance drop starting on kernel-4.18.0-277 visible on
mmap benchmark (BZ#1980314)
* Inaccessible NFS server overloads clients
(native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath connotation?) (BZ#1980613)
* [RHEL8.4 BUG],RialtoMLK, I915 graphic driver failed to boot with one new
120HZ panel (BZ#1981250)
* act_ct: subject to DNAT tuple collision (BZ#1982494)
Enhancement(s):
* [Lenovo 8.5 FEAT] drivers/nvme - Update to the latest upstream
(BZ#1965415)
