Red Hat Security Advisory 2018-2948-01 - The kernel-alt packages provide the Linux kernel version 4.x. Issues addressed include buffer overflow, bypass, denial of service, information leakage, null pointer, and use-after-free vulnerabilities.
2a082c96c14fb8589f9da34adecaa49dRed Hat Security Advisory 2018-3083-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Issues addressed include buffer overflow, denial of service, information leakage, null pointer, and use-after-free vulnerabilities.
a6d84db31a182b168784c89134030a6bRed Hat Security Advisory 2018-3096-01 - The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements. Issues addressed include buffer overflow, denial of service, information leakage, null pointer, and use-after-free vulnerabilities.
394199cc489bc6f17933c36959a1a58aThe sr_do_ioctl function in drivers/scsi/sr_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel through 4.16.12 allows local users to cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact because sense buffers have different sizes at the CDROM layer and the SCSI layer, as demonstrated by a CDROMREADMODE2 ioctl call. Wen Xu discovered that the ext4 file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize the crc32c checksum driver. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). Various other issues were also addressed.
fc944208680854f3168be2702b530c3bUbuntu Security Notice 3718-2 - USN-3695-2 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux Hardware Enablement Kernel kernel for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Unfortunately, the fix for CVE-2018-1108 introduced a regression where insufficient early entropy prevented services from starting, leading in some situations to a failure to boot, This update addresses the issue. Various other issues were also addressed.

89afcc71542e7f35797e8836a45c4aa9Ubuntu Security Notice 3695-1 - Wen Xu discovered that the ext4 file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize the crc32c checksum driver. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that the cdrom driver in the Linux kernel contained an incorrect bounds check. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. Various other issues were also addressed.
1ab8575ad708cdc9ce2f92f0db75ae9fUbuntu Security Notice 3695-2 - USN-3695-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

6208e9e136bfff7fc82ca98b30f85bdaUbuntu Security Notice 3676-2 - USN-3676-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. This update provides the corresponding updates for the Linux Hardware Enablement kernel from Ubuntu 16.04 LTS for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Wen Xu discovered that the ext4 filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle corrupted meta data in some situations. An attacker could use this to specially craft an ext4 file system that caused a denial of service when mounted. Various other issues were also addressed.
