This advisory addresses security vulnerabilities and bug fixes in the Linux kernel packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8. Two security issues are fixed: a user-triggerable WARN_ON() in the RDMA mana driver (CVE-2026-46117) and a missing channel lock in the Bluetooth l2cap component (CVE-2026-53071). The update also resolves a kernel deadlock issue related to lock order. The update is rated as important by Red Hat Product Security and requires a system reboot to take effect.

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel futex subsystem related to the CLONE_THREAD requirement for private default hash allocation has been resolved. The issue involved incorrect assumptions about concurrency when sharing memory mappings (mm) in ways other than pthread semantics, leading to use-after-free bugs. This could cause kernel memory corruption and crashes. The vulnerability has been addressed by loosening the check to cover any CLONE_VM clone except vfork, preventing the race conditions. Red Hat has released security updates for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 and 10 to fix this issue. The updates require system reboot to take effect.
