Summary
Important: kernel security, bug fix, and enhancement update
Details

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system.

Security Fix(es):

  • kernel: Linux kernel: Denial of Service in qla2xxx SCSI driver due to improper command handling after chip reset (CVE-2025-68745)

  • kernel: scsi: target: configfs: Bound snprintf() return in tg_pt_gp_members_show() (CVE-2026-46149)

  • kernel: netfilter: nf_log: validate MAC header was set before dumping it (CVE-2026-52942)

  • kernel: sctp: diag: reject stale associations in dump_one path (CVE-2026-52917)

  • kernel: net: pull headers in qdisc_pkt_len_segs_init() (CVE-2026-53091)

  • kernel: netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: don't use simple_strtoul (CVE-2026-52986)

  • kernel: sctp: validate cached peer INIT chunk length in COOKIE_ECHO processing (CVE-2026-53246)

  • kernel: tipc: fix slab-use-after-free Read in tipc_aead_decrypt_done (CVE-2026-63801)

  • kernel: sctp: fix race between sctp_wait_for_connect and peeloff (CVE-2026-63971)

  • kernel: security/keys: fix missed RCU read section on lookup (CVE-2026-64015)

  • kernel: ixgbevf: fix use-after-free in VEPA multicast source pruning (CVE-2026-64113)

  • kernel: sctp: fix auth_hmacs array size in struct sctp_cookie (CVE-2026-68376)

  • kernel: tipc: clear sock->sk on the failed-insert path in tipc_sk_create() (CVE-2026-68117)

  • kernel: sctp: auth: verify auth requirement when auth_chunk is NULL (CVE-2026-68300)

  • kernel: sctp: validate stream count in sctp_process_strreset_inreq() (CVE-2026-68315)

Bug Fix(es) and Enhancement(s):
