Rocky Linux administrators need to apply two urgent security patches right away. The first addresses a git-lfs flaw in version nine, while the second tackles CopyFail, a severe kernel vulnerability that allows unprivileged users to escalate directly to root access. This memory-based exploit completely bypasses traditional file integrity monitoring tools and requires no special privileges to run. Simply refresh your package metadata, update all kernel packages, and restart your machines across supported releases to stay safe.
