ALSA-2023:4377 Not scored

Important: kernel security, bug fix, and enhancement update

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Security Fix(es): * kernel: ipvlan: out-of-bounds write caused by unclear skb->cb (CVE-2023-3090) * kernel: cls_flower: out-of-bounds write in fl_set_geneve_opt() (CVE-2023-35788) * kernel: KVM: x86/mmu: race condition in direct_page_fault() (CVE-2022-45869) * kernel: speculative pointer dereference in do_prlimit() in kernel/sys.c (CVE-2023-0458) * kernel: Spectre v2 SMT mitigations problem (CVE-2023-1998) 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.
