Red Hat Security Advisory
Synopsis: Important: kernel-rt security and bug fix update
Advisory ID: RHSA-2017:0091-01
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017-0091.html
Issue date: 2017-01-17
CVE Names: CVE-2016-6828 CVE-2016-7117 CVE-2016-9555
=====================================================================
1. Summary:
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.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Realtime (v. 7) – noarch, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux for Real Time for NFV (v. 7) – 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 use-after-free vulnerability was found in the kernel’s socket recvmmsg
subsystem. This may allow remote attackers to corrupt memory and may allow
execution of arbitrary code. This corruption takes place during the error
handling routines within __sys_recvmmsg() function. (CVE-2016-7117,
Important)
* A use-after-free vulnerability was found in tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue and
other tcp_* functions. This condition could allow an attacker to send an
incorrect selective acknowledgment to existing connections, possibly
resetting a connection. (CVE-2016-6828, Moderate)
* A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s implementation of sctp protocol in
which a remote attacker can trigger an out of bounds read with an offset of
up to 64kB. This may panic the machine with a page-fault. (CVE-2016-9555,
Moderate)
Bug Fix(es):
* The kernel-rt packages have been upgraded to the 3.10.0-514.6.1 source
tree, which provides a number of bug fixes over the previous version.
(BZ#1401863)
* Previously, the device mapper (DM) subsystem was not notified that the
real-time kernel changes the way preemption works with spinlocks. This
caused a kernel panic when the dm-multipath kernel module was loaded
because the interrupt request (IRQ) check was invalid on the real-time
kernel. This check has been corrected enabling the system to boot correctly
with the dm-multipath module enabled. (BZ#1400930)
* Unlike the standard Linux kernel, the real-time kernel does not disable
interrupts inside the Interrupt Service Routines driver. Because of this
difference, a New API (NAPI) function for turning interrupt requests (IRQ)
off was actually being called with IRQs enabled. Consequently, the NAPI
poll list was being corrupted, causing improper networking card operation
and potential kernel hangs. With this update, the NAPI function has been
corrected to force modifications of the poll list to be protected allowing
proper operation of the networking card drivers. (BZ#1402837)
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.

3. Description:
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.
These updated kernel packages include several security issues and numerous
bug fixes, some of which you can see below. Space precludes documenting all
of these bug fixes in this advisory. To see the complete list of bug fixes,
users are directed to the related Knowledge Article:
https://access.redhat.com/articles/2857831.
Security Fix(es):
* A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the kernel’s socket recvmmsg
subsystem. This may allow remote attackers to corrupt memory and may allow
execution of arbitrary code. This corruption takes place during the error
handling routines within __sys_recvmmsg() function. (CVE-2016-7117,

other tcp_* functions. This condition could allow an attacker to send an
incorrect selective acknowledgment to existing connections, possibly
resetting a connection. (CVE-2016-6828, Moderate)
* A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s implementation of the SCTP
protocol. A remote attacker could trigger an out-of-bounds read with an
offset of up to 64kB potentially causing the system to crash.
(CVE-2016-9555, Moderate)
Bug Fix(es):
* Previously, the performance of Internet Protocol over InfiniBand (IPoIB)
was suboptimal due to a conflict of IPoIB with the Generic Receive Offload
(GRO) infrastructure. With this update, the data cached by the IPoIB driver
has been moved from a control block into the IPoIB hard header, thus
avoiding the GRO problem and the corruption of IPoIB address information.
As a result, the performance of IPoIB has been improved. (BZ#1390668)
* Previously, when a virtual machine (VM) with PCI-Passthrough interfaces
was recreated, a race condition between the eventfd daemon and the virqfd
daemon occurred. Consequently, the operating system rebooted. This update
fixes the race condition. As a result, the operating system no longer
reboots in the described situation. (BZ#1391611)
* Previously, a packet loss occurred when the team driver in round-robin
mode was sending a large number of packets. This update fixes counting of
the packets in the round-robin runner of the team driver, and the packet
loss no longer occurs in the described situation. (BZ#1392023)
* Previously, the virtual network devices contained in the deleted
namespace could be deleted in any order. If the loopback device was not
deleted as the last item, other netns devices, such as vxlan devices, could
end up with dangling references to the loopback device. Consequently,
deleting a network namespace (netns) occasionally ended by a kernel oops.
With this update, the underlying source code has been fixed to ensure the
correct order when deleting the virtual network devices on netns deletion.
As a result, the kernel oops no longer occurs under the described
circumstances. (BZ#1392024)
* Previously, a Kabylake system with a Sunrise Point Platform Controller
Hub (PCH) with a PCI device ID of 0xA149 showed the following warning
messages during the boot:
“Unknown Intel PCH (0xa149) detected.”
“Warning: Intel Kabylake processor with unknown PCH – this hardware has
not undergone testing by Red Hat and might not be certified. Please consult
https://hardware.redhat.com for certified hardware.”
The messages were shown because this PCH was not properly recognized. With
this update, the problem has been fixed, and the operating system now boots
without displaying the warning messages. (BZ#1392033)
* Previously, the operating system occasionally became unresponsive after a
long run. This was caused by a race condition between the try_to_wake_up()
function and a woken up task in the core scheduler. With this update, the
race condition has been fixed, and the operating system no longer locks up
in the described scenario. (BZ#1393719)
4. Solution:

Red Hat Security Advisory
Synopsis: Important: kernel-rt security and bug fix update
Advisory ID: RHSA-2017:0113-01
Product: Red Hat Enterprise MRG for RHEL-6
Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017-0113.html
Issue date: 2017-01-17
CVE Names: CVE-2016-6828 CVE-2016-7117 CVE-2016-9555
=====================================================================
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.
The kernel-rt packages have been upgraded to version 3.10.0-514, which
provides a number of security and bug fixes over the previous version.
(BZ#1400193)
Security Fix(es):
* A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the kernel’s socket recvmmsg
subsystem. This may allow remote attackers to corrupt memory and may allow
execution of arbitrary code. This corruption takes place during the error
handling routines within __sys_recvmmsg() function. (CVE-2016-7117,
Important)
* A use-after-free vulnerability was found in tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue and
other tcp_* functions. This condition could allow an attacker to send an
incorrect selective acknowledgment to existing connections, possibly
resetting a connection. (CVE-2016-6828, Moderate)
* A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s implementation of sctp protocol in
which a remote attacker can trigger an out of bounds read with an offset of
up to 64kB. This may panic the machine with a page-fault. (CVE-2016-9555,
Moderate)
Bug Fix(es):
* Previously, console warnings from the real-time kernel were generated
when a sleeping lock was acquired in atomic context. With this update, the
code has been modified to not acquire a sleeping lock in this context. As a
result, the console warnings are no longer generated. (BZ#1378982)
* Previously, the device mapper (DM) subsystem was not notified that the
real-time kernel changes the way preemption works with spinlocks. This
caused a kernel panic when the dm-multipath kernel module was loaded
because the interrupt request (IRQ) check was invalid on the real-time
kernel. This check has been corrected enabling the system to boot correctly
with the dm-multipath module enabled. (BZ#1400305)
* Previously, the kernel could sometimes panic due to a possible division
by zero in the scheduler. This bug has been fixed by defining a new
div64_ul() division function and correcting the affected calculation in the
proc_sched_show_task() function. (BZ#1400975)
* Unlike the standard Linux kernel, the real-time kernel does not disable
interrupts inside the Interrupt Service Routines driver. Because of this
difference, a New API (NAPI) function for turning interrupt requests (IRQ)
off was actually being called with IRQs enabled. Consequently, the NAPI
poll list was being corrupted, causing improper networking card operation
and potential kernel hangs. With this update, the NAPI function has been
corrected to force modifications of the poll list to be protected allowing
proper operation of the networking card drivers. (BZ#1401779)
Enhancement(s):
* With this update, the CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG and CONFIG_SLABINFO kernel
configuration options are enabled in the real-time kernel. These options
turn on SLUB allocator debugging and slab information tracking, which are
helpful when investigating kernel memory allocation problems. (BZ#1357997)
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/):
1346444 – [mrg] update kernel-rt sources
1357997 – Enable CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG and CONFIG_SLABINFO
1367091 – CVE-2016-6828 kernel: Use after free in tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue
1378982 – BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible
1382268 – CVE-2016-7117 kernel: Use-after-free in the recvmmsg exit path
1397930 – CVE-2016-9555 kernel: Slab out-of-bounds access in sctp_sf_ootb()
1400193 – update the MRG 2.5.z 3.10 kernel-rt sources
1400305 – RT kernel panics with dm-multipath enabled [mrg]
1401779 – NIC hangs due to corrupt napi lists
