3. Description:

 

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux

operating system.

 

Security Fix(es):

 

* Linux kernel built with the 802.1Q/802.1ad VLAN(CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q) OR

Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network(CONFIG_VXLAN) with Transparent

Ethernet Bridging(TEB) GRO support, is vulnerable to a stack overflow

issue. It could occur while receiving large packets via GRO path as an

unlimited recursion could unfold in both VLAN and TEB modules leading to a

stack corruption in the kernel. (CVE-2016-7039, Important)

 

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/):

 

1375944 - CVE-2016-7039 kernel: remotely triggerable unbounded recursion in the vlan gro code leading to a kernel crash
