The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Security Fix: * Linux kernel built with the 802.1Q/802.1ad VLAN OR Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network with Transparent Ethernet Bridging GRO support, is vulnerable to a stack overflow issue. It could occur while receiving large packets via GRO path as an unlimited recursion could unfold in both VLAN and TEB modules leading to a stack corruption in the kernel
