Synopsis: FEDORA-2017-9a479a2cff can now be patched using Ksplice
Systems running Fedora 24 can now use Ksplice to patch against the
latest Fedora kernel update, FEDORA-2017-9a479a2cff .
INSTALLING THE UPDATES
We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack running Fedora 24
install these updates.
On systems that have "autoinstall = yes" in /etc/uptrack/uptrack.conf,
these updates will be installed automatically and you do not need to
take any action.
Alternatively, you can install these updates by running:
# /usr/sbin/uptrack-upgrade -y
DESCRIPTION
* Data race when canceling timer file descriptors causes denial-of-service.
Missing serialization when canceling timer file descriptors could cause
the cancels to race, causing a data race or use-after-free, potentially
resulting in a kernel crash and denial-of-service.
* Information leak via multiple disk (RAID/LVM) device ioctl.
Failing to initialize an unused data field in multiple device ioctls
could allow kernel stack information to be exposed to userspace.
SUPPORT
Ksplice support is available at ksplice-support_ww at oracle.com.
