An update for kernel is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system.
Security Fix(es) :
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.
Bug Fix(es) :
Note that removing the limit check does not impact the integrity of the kernel itself. (BZ#1644401)

Security Fix(es) :
* kernel: MIDI driver race condition leads to a double-free
(CVE-2018-10902)
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.
Bug Fix(es) :
* Previously backported upstream patch caused a change in the behavior
of page fault handler. As a consequence, applications compiled through
GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) version 4.4.7 sometimes generated stack
access exceeding the 64K limit. Running such applications subsequently
triggered a segmentation fault. With this update, the 64k limit check
in the page fault handler has been removed. As a result, running the
affected applications no longer triggers the segmentation fault in the
described scenario.
Note that removing the limit check does not impact the integrity of
the kernel itself. (BZ#1644401)");
