"An update for kernel-rt is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux
7.

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.

The kernel-rt packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.

The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version:
kernel-rt (3.10.0-327.22.1). This version provides a number of bug
fixes and enhancements, including :

* [netdrv] ixgbevf: fix spoofed packets with random MAC and use
ether_addr_copy instead of memcpy

* [mm] mmu_notifier: fix memory corruption

* [mm] hugetlbfs: optimize when NUMA=n

* [mm] optimize put_mems_allowed() usage

* [x86] mm: suitable memory should go to ZONE_MOVABLE

* [fs] xfs: fix splice/direct-IO deadlock

* [acpi] tables: Add acpi_subtable_proc to ACPI table parsers

* [acpi] table: Add new function to get table entries

* [net] ipv6: Nonlocal bind

* [net] ipv4: bind ip_nonlocal_bind to current netns

(BZ#1335747)

Security Fix(es) :

* A flaw was found in the way certain interfaces of the Linux kernel's
Infiniband subsystem used write() as bi-directional ioctl()
replacement, which could lead to insufficient memory security checks
when being invoked using the the splice() system call. A local
unprivileged user on a system with either Infiniband hardware present
or RDMA Userspace Connection Manager Access module explicitly loaded,
could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system.
(CVE-2016-4565, Important)

* A race condition flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's SCTP
implementation handled sctp_accept() during the processing of
heartbeat timeout events. A remote attacker could use this flaw to
prevent further connections to be accepted by the SCTP server running
on the system, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2015-8767,
Moderate)

* A flaw was found in the way the realtime kernel processed specially
crafted ICMP echo requests. A remote attacker could use this flaw to
trigger a sysrql function based on values in the ICMP packet, allowing
them to remotely restart the system. Note that this feature is not
enabled by default and requires elevated privileges to be configured.
(CVE-2016-3707, Moderate)

Red Hat would like to thank Jann Horn for reporting CVE-2016-4565.

Bug Fix(es) :

* Previously, configuration changes to the Hewlett Packard Smart Array
(HPSA) driver during I/O operations could set the phys_disk pointer to
NULL. Consequently, kernel oops could occur while the HPSA driver was
submitting ioaccel2 commands. An upstream patch has been provided to
fix this bug, and the oops in the hpsa_scsi_ioaccel_raid_map()
function no longer occurs. (BZ#1335411)

* In a previous code update one extra spin_lock operation was left
untouched. Consequently, a deadlock could occur when looping through
cache pages. With this update, the extra lock operation has been
removed from the source code and the deadlock no longer occurs in the
described situation. (BZ#1327073)"
