Red Hat Security Advisory 2020-4609-01 - The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements. Issues addressed include bypass, denial of service, information leakage, memory leak, null pointer, out of bounds access, out of bounds read, out of bounds write, privilege escalation, and use-after-free vulnerabilities.
429795cee7e49d12da71416a2fee9329Red Hat Security Advisory 2020-4431-01 - The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Issues addressed include buffer overflow, bypass, denial of service, information leakage, memory leak, null pointer, out of bounds access, out of bounds read, out of bounds write, privilege escalation, and use-after-free vulnerabilities.
40a4f9454bafb09a9b91ae53a7e2f617Ubuntu Security Notice 4300-1 - It was discovered that the KVM implementation in the Linux kernel, when paravirtual TLB flushes are enabled in guests, the hypervisor in some situations could miss deferred TLB flushes or otherwise mishandle them. An attacker in a guest VM could use this to expose sensitive information. Paulo Bonzini discovered that the KVM hypervisor implementation in the Linux kernel could improperly let a nested guest access the resources of a parent guest in certain situations. An attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. Various other issues were also addressed.
caa07f46355fbda12c3113a6958695d0Ubuntu Security Notice 4287-2 - USN-4287-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. This update provides the corresponding updates for the Linux kernel for Microsoft Azure Cloud systems for Ubuntu 14.04 ESM. It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly clear data structures on context switches for certain Intel graphics processors. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. Various other issues were also addressed.
e0a917b1318a227cbe7dcda44cca0d1aUbuntu Security Notice 4287-1 - It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly clear data structures on context switches for certain Intel graphics processors. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. It was discovered that the Atheros 802.11ac wireless USB device driver in the Linux kernel did not properly validate device metadata. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
8ac6c9839149435e4e444efe50c60dbcUbuntu Security Notice 4285-1 - It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly clear data structures on context switches for certain Intel graphics processors. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. It was discovered that the HSA Linux kernel driver for AMD GPU devices did not properly check for errors in certain situations, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
