This Red Hat security advisory addresses multiple vulnerabilities and bug fixes in the Linux kernel packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 and 9. The update includes fixes for a denial of service vulnerability in the qla2xxx SCSI driver (CVE-2025-68745) and numerous other security issues affecting Bluetooth, DRM, SCTP, Wi-Fi, and other kernel subsystems. The advisory also contains bug fixes and enhancements unrelated to security. The kernel update is rated as important by Red Hat and requires a system reboot to apply.

This Red Hat security advisory addresses multiple vulnerabilities and bug fixes in the Linux kernel, including a denial of service vulnerability in the qla2xxx SCSI driver (CVE-2025-68745) and numerous other issues affecting various kernel subsystems such as Bluetooth, DRM, SCTP, Wi-Fi, and more. The advisory covers security fixes, bug fixes, and enhancements for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 and related components. A patch is available to remediate these issues.

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Security Fix(es): * kernel: KVM: nSVM: Always use vmcb01 in VMLOAD/VMSAVE emulation (CVE-2026-43133) * kernel: ipv6: prevent possible UaF in addrconf_permanent_addr() (CVE-2026-43339) * kernel: crypto: pcrypt - Fix handling of MAY_BACKLOG requests (CVE-2026-43493) * kernel: tcp: call sk_data_ready() after listener migration (CVE-2026-46015) * kernel: scsi: target: configfs: Bound snprintf() return in tg_pt_gp_members_show() (CVE-2026-46149) * kernel: inet: RAW sockets using IPPROTO_RAW MUST drop incoming ICMP (CVE-2026-46266) * kernel: flow_dissector: do not dissect PPPoE PFC frames (CVE-2026-46306) * kernel: Revert "net/smc: Introduce TCP ULP support" (CVE-2026-46330) * kernel: netfilter: conntrack: remove sprintf usage (CVE-2026-53002) * kernel: net: guard timestamp cmsgs to real error queue skbs (CVE-2026-53223) * kernel: ipv6: mcast: Fix use-after-free when processing MLD queries (CVE-2026-53275) * kernel: ipv4: account for fraggap on the paged allocation path (CVE-2026-53366) * kernel: net: mana: Fix TOCTOU double-fetch of hwc_msg_id from DMA buffer (CVE-2026-64034) * kernel: rhashtable: clear stale iter->p on table restart (CVE-2026-64563) * kernel: smb: client: fix double-free in SMB2_close() replay (CVE-2026-64597) * kernel: nvmet-rdma: handle inline data with a nonzero offset (CVE-2026-72129) * kernel: net: bridge: stop fast-leave after deleting a port group (CVE-2026-74480) Bug Fix(es) and Enhancement(s): * KSM to deduplicate only zero pages [rhel-9.8.z] (JIRA:RHEL-249161) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Multiple security vulnerabilities affecting the SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP4 RT kernel were addressed in a security update. The update fixes a range of issues including Bluetooth event handling, IPv6 ICMP error processing, use-after-free conditions, stale data exposure, buffer overflows, locking issues, and memory management bugs. These vulnerabilities impact kernel components such as Bluetooth, networking, crypto, KVM virtualization, and filesystem handling. The update mitigates these issues to improve system stability and security.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: fix locking in hci_conn_request_evt() with HCI_PROTO_DEFER When protocol sets HCI_PROTO_DEFER, hci_conn_request_evt() calls hci_connect_cfm(conn) without hdev->lock. Generally hci_connect_cfm() assumes it is held, and if conn is deleted concurrently -> UAF. Only SCO and ISO set HCI_PROTO_DEFER and only for defer setup listen, and HCI_EV_CONN_REQUEST is not generated for ISO. In the non-deferred listening socket code paths, hci_connect_cfm(conn) is called with hdev->lock held. Fix by holding the lock.
