(CVE-2022-1729)

* kernel: a use-after-free write in the netfilter subsystem can lead to
privilege escalation to root (CVE-2022-1966)

* kernel: buffer overflow in IPsec ESP transformation code (CVE-2022-27666)

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):
