RedHat: RHSA-2020-2429:01 Important: kernel security and bug fix update
Summary
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.
Security Fix(es):
* Kernel: NetLabel: null pointer dereference while receiving CIPSO packet
with null category may cause kernel panic (CVE-2020-10711)
* Kernel: s390: page table upgrade in secondary address mode may lead to
privilege escalation (CVE-2020-11884)
* kernel: use-after-free in block/bfq-iosched.c related to
bfq_idle_slice_timer_body (CVE-2020-12657)
* kernel: powerpc: incomplete Spectre-RSB mitigation leads to information
exposure (CVE-2019-18660)
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):
* kernel: hw: provide reporting and microcode mitigation toggle for
CVE-2020-0543 / Special Register Buffer Data Sampling (SRBDS) (BZ#1840684)
* missing version.h dependency for modpost may cause build to fail
(BZ#1828227)
* efi: kernel panic during ltp fs test - read_all -d /sys -q -r 10
(BZ#1829525)
