The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Security Fix: * Kernel: KVM: OOB memory access via mmio ring buffer * kernel: local attacker can trigger multiple use-after-free conditions results in privilege escalation For more details about the security issue, including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page listed in the References section.
