1. Summary:

An update for kernel-rt is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.

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.

3. Description:

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: use-after-free vulnerability in the perf_group_detach function of
the Linux Kernel Performance Events (CVE-2023-2235)

* kernel: netfilter: use-after-free in nf_tables when processing batch
requests can lead to privilege escalation (CVE-2023-32233)

* Kernel: bluetooth: Unauthorized management command execution
(CVE-2023-2002)

* kernel: OOB access in the Linux kernel's XFS subsystem (CVE-2023-2124)

* kernel: i2c: out-of-bounds write in xgene_slimpro_i2c_xfer()
(CVE-2023-2194)

* kernel: tls: race condition in do_tls_getsockopt may lead to
use-after-free or NULL pointer dereference (CVE-2023-28466)

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):

* [RT] Single Node Openshift cluster becomes unreachable after running less
than 2 hours (BZ#2186853)

* kernel-rt: update RT source tree to the latest RHEL-9.2.z1 Batch
(BZ#2188313)
