Red Hat Security Advisory: kernel security and bug fix update
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Security Fix(es): * CVE-2024-25743 hw: amd: Instruction raise #VC exception at exit (AMD-SN-3008,CVE-2024-25742,CVE-2024-25743) Bug Fix(es): * CVE-2024-25743 kernel: hw: amd: Instruction raise #VC exception at exit (JIRA:RHEL-30028) * Seeing high latency execution of kernel functions associated with cgroup_rstat_updated() (JIRA:RHEL-30186) * RHEL9 NFS file corruption handling congestion (JIRA:RHEL-31223) * Add tracepoints for sources of IPIs (JIRA:RHEL-27097) * In RHEL9/cgroupv2, vhost task is not pinned to pCPU defined by emulatorpin (JIRA:RHEL-32635)
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This Red Hat security advisory (RHSA-2024:2627) addresses two vulnerabilities, CVE-2024-25742 and CVE-2024-25743, in the Linux kernel packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2 Extended Update Support. Both vulnerabilities relate to AMD hardware where an instruction raises a #VC exception at exit. The advisory also includes multiple bug fixes unrelated to security. The update is rated as moderate impact by Red Hat Product Security. The advisory provides updated kernel packages and requires a system reboot to apply the fixes.
Potential Impact
The vulnerabilities involve AMD hardware instructions causing a #VC exception at exit, which could affect system stability or behavior on affected systems. Red Hat rates the security impact as moderate. There are no known exploits in the wild. The advisory also addresses other kernel bugs that could impact performance and file system integrity but are not classified as security issues.
Mitigation Recommendations
A security update for the Linux kernel is available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2 Extended Update Support. Users should apply the update as described in the Red Hat advisory (https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258) and reboot the system to activate the fixes. This update addresses the vulnerabilities and several kernel bugs. No additional mitigation steps are indicated by the vendor.
