1. Summary:

An update for kernel is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.2
Extended Update Support.

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 CodeReady Linux Builder EUS (v. 8.2) - aarch64, ppc64le, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux BaseOS EUS (v. 8.2) - aarch64, noarch, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64

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)

* kernel: race condition for removal of the HCI controller (CVE-2021-32399)

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):

* [Regression] RHEL8.2 - ISST-LTE:pVM:diapvmlp83:sum:memory DLPAR fails to
add memory on multiple trials[mm/memory_hotplug.c:1163] (mm-) (BZ#1930169)

* Every server is displaying the same power levels for all of our i40e 25G
interfaces. 10G interfaces seem to be correct. Ethtool version is 5.0
(BZ#1967100)

* s390/uv: Fix handling of length extensions (BZ#1975657)

* RHEL 8.3 using FCOE via a FastLinQ QL45000 card will not manually scan in
LUN from Target_id's over 8 (BZ#1976265)

* Backport "tick/nohz: Conditionally restart tick on idle exit" to RHEL 8.5
(BZ#1978711)

* rhel8.3: phase 2 netfilter backports from upstream (BZ#1980323)

* xfrm: backports from upstream (BZ#1981841)

Enhancement(s):

* [8.2.z] Incorrect parsing of ACPI HMAT table reports incorrect kernel
WARNING taint (BZ#1943702)

* Only selected patches from [IBM 8.4 FEAT] ibmvnic: Backport FW950 and
assorted bug fixes (BZ#1980795)

4. Solution:
