Synopsis: Important: kernel security and bug fix update
Advisory ID: RHSA-2022:5626-01
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Advisory URL:   https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2022:5626
Issue date: 2022-07-19
CVE Names: CVE-2020-29368 CVE-2021-4197 CVE-2021-4203

=====================================================================

1. Summary:

An update for kernel is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.4
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. 8.4) - aarch64, ppc64le, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux BaseOS EUS (v.8.4) - 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: Small table perturb size in the TCP source port generation
algorithm can lead to information leak (CVE-2022-1012)

* kernel: race condition in perf_event_open leads to privilege escalation
(CVE-2022-1729)

* kernel: a use-after-free write in the netfilter subsystem can lead to
privilege escalation to root (CVE-2022-32250)

* kernel: cgroup: Use open-time creds and namespace for migration perm
checks (CVE-2021-4197)

* kernel: Race condition in races in sk_peer_pid and sk_peer_cred accesses
(CVE-2021-4203)

* kernel: the copy-on-write implementation can grant unintended write
access because of a race condition in a THP mapcount check (CVE-2020-29368)

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):

* Failed to reboot after crash trigger (BZ#2060747)

* conntrack entries linger around after test (BZ#2066357)

* Enable nested virtualization (BZ#2079070)

* slub corruption during LPM of hnv interface (BZ#2081251)

* sleeping function called from invalid context at
kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:35 (BZ#2082091)

* Backport request of "genirq: use rcu in kstat_irqs_usr()" (BZ#2083309)

* ethtool -L may cause system to hang (BZ#2083323)

* For isolated CPUs (with nohz_full enabled for isolated CPUs) CPU
utilization statistics are not getting reflected continuously (BZ#2084139)

* Affinity broken due to vector space exhaustion (BZ#2084647)

* kernel memory leak while freeing nested actions (BZ#2086597)

* sync rhel-8.6 with upstream 5.13 through 5.16 fixes and improvements
(BZ#2088037)

* Kernel panic possibly when cleaning namespace on pod deletion
(BZ#2089539)

* Softirq hrtimers are being placed on the per-CPU softirq clocks on
isolcpu’s. (BZ#2090485)

* fix missed wake-ups in rq_qos_throttle try two (BZ#2092076)

* NFS4 client experiencing IO outages while sending duplicate SYNs and
erroneous RSTs during connection reestablishment (BZ#2094334)

* using __this_cpu_read() in preemptible [00000000] code:
kworker/u66:1/937154 (BZ#2095775)

* Need some changes in RHEL8.x kernels. (BZ#2096932)
