The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements.

Security Fix(es):

  • kernel: Bluetooth: af_bluetooth: Fix deadlock (CVE-2024-26886)

  • kernel: crypto: qat - resolve race condition during AER recovery (CVE-2024-26974)

  • kernel: tty: n_gsm: require CAP_NET_ADMIN to attach N_GSM0710 ldisc (CVE-2023-52880)

  • kernel: cpufreq: exit() callback is optional (CVE-2024-38615)

  • kernel: cppc_cpufreq: Fix possible null pointer dereference (CVE-2024-38573)

  • kernel: scsi: qedf: Ensure the copied buf is NUL terminated (CVE-2024-38559)

  • kernel: ACPICA: Revert "ACPICA: avoid Info: mapping multiple BARs. Your kernel is fine." (CVE-2024-40984)

  • kernel: sched/deadline: Fix task_struct reference leak (CVE-2024-41023)

  • kernel: mm/filemap: skip to create PMD-sized page cache if needed (CVE-2024-41031)

  • kernel: mm/shmem: disable PMD-sized page cache if needed (CVE-2024-42241)

  • kernel: mm/filemap: make MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER acceptable to xarray (CVE-2024-42243)

  • kernel: net, sunrpc: Remap EPERM in case of connection failure in xs_tcp_setup_socket (CVE-2024-42246)
