Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation Optional (v. 6) - i386, x86_64

3. Description:

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.

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)

4. Solution:

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes
described in this advisory, refer to:

https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258

The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect.

5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

1590720 - CVE-2018-10902 kernel: MIDI driver race condition leads to a double-free
