Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: kernel-rt security and bug fix update

Notes

Topic
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.
Details
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 (3.10.0-327.18.2). This version provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements, including: * [scsi] bnx2fc: Fix FCP RSP residual parsing and remove explicit logouts * [scsi] mpt3sas: Fix for Asynchronous completion of timedout IO and task abort of timedout IO * [scsi] scsi_error: should not get sense for timeout IO in scsi error handler * [scsi] Revert libiscsi: Reduce locking contention in fast path * [mm] madvise: fix MADV_WILLNEED on shmem swapouts * [cpufreq] intel_pstate: decrease number of "HWP enabled" messages and enable HWP per CPU * [kernel] sched: Robustify topology setup * [kernel] sched/fair: Disable tg load_avg/runnable_avg update for root_task_group * [kernel] sched/fair: Move hot load_avg/runnable_avg into separate cacheline * [ib] mlx5: Fix RC transport send queue overhead computation * [fs] nfsd: fix clp->cl_revoked list deletion causing softlock in nfsd * [fs] ceph: multiple updates (BZ#1320168) Security Fix(es): * A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's ASN.1 DER decoder processed certain certificate files with tags of indefinite length. A local, unprivileged user could use a specially crafted X.509 certificate DER file to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2016-0758, Important) Red Hat would like to thank Philip Pettersson of Samsung for reporting this issue. Bug Fix(es): * The hotplug lock and the console semaphore could be acquired in an incorrect order, which could previously lead to a deadlock causing the system console to freeze. The underlying code has been adjusted to acquire the locks in the correct order, resolving the bug with the console. (BZ#1267425)
