GCVE-VVD-MAGEIA-2021-397
Advisory Published
This kernel update is based on upstream 5.10.56 and fixes at least the
following security issues:
In the Linux kernel through 5.13.7, an unprivileged BPF program can
obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a Speculative Store
Bypass side-channel attack because the protection mechanism neglects the
possibility of uninitialized memory locations on the BPF stack
(CVE-2021-34556).
In the Linux kernel through 5.13.7, an unprivileged BPF program can
obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a Speculative Store
Bypass side-channel attack because a certain preempting store operation
does not necessarily occur before a store operation that has an
attacker-controlled value (CVE-2021-35477).
Other fixes in this update:
- btrfs: fix lost inode on log replay after mix of fsync, rename and
inode eviction
- btrfs: fix race causing unnecessary inode logging during link and rename
- watchdog: iTCO_wdt: Fix detection of SMI-off case (fixes sporadic reboots
on some systems)
- Revert "ACPICA: Fix memory leak caused by _CID repair function", fixing
boot failures on some systems
- fix another ACPI issue causing some systems to boot slowly or not at all
after kernel 5.10.50
- revert: 'scsi: sr: Return appropriate error code when disk is ejected'
(fixes DVD opening on resume from suspend or standby, mga #29262)
- Revert "usb: renesas-xhci: Fix handling of unknown ROM state"
(fixes renesas usb pci stopped working, mga #29285)
- Revert "drm/i915: Propagate errors on awaiting already signaled fences"
and "drm/i915/gem: Asynchronous cmdparser" (fixes an issue where an
app hang can cause X server to hang)
