Red Hat Security Advisory
Synopsis: Important: kernel-rt security update
Advisory ID: RHSA-2016:2107-01
Product: Red Hat Enterprise MRG for RHEL-6
Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2016-2107.html
Issue date: 2016-10-26
CVE Names: CVE-2016-5195 CVE-2016-7039
=====================================================================
1. Summary:
An update for kernel-rt is now available for Red Hat Enterprise MRG 2.5.
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:
MRG Realtime for RHEL 6 Server v.2 – noarch, x86_64
3. Description:
The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables
fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements.
Security Fix(es):
* A race condition was found in the way the Linux kernel’s memory subsystem
handled the copy-on-write (COW) breakage of private read-only memory
mappings. An unprivileged, local user could use this flaw to gain write
access to otherwise read-only memory mappings and thus increase their
privileges on the system. (CVE-2016-5195, Important)
* Linux kernel built with the 802.1Q/802.1ad VLAN(CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q) OR
Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network(CONFIG_VXLAN) with Transparent
Ethernet Bridging(TEB) GRO support, is vulnerable to a stack overflow
issue. It could occur while receiving large packets via GRO path; As an
unlimited recursion could unfold in both VLAN and TEB modules, leading to a
stack corruption in the kernel. (CVE-2016-7039, Important)
Red Hat would like to thank Phil Oester for reporting CVE-2016-5195.
4. Solution:
For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes
described in this advisory, refer to:
https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258
The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.
5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
1375944 – CVE-2016-7039 kernel: remotely triggerable unbounded recursion in the vlan gro code leading to a kernel crash
1384344 – CVE-2016-5195 kernel: mm: privilege escalation via MAP_PRIVATE COW breakage
