[El-errata] New Ksplice updates for UEKR4 4.1.12 on OL6 and OL7 (ELBA-2018-4236)

[Errata Announcements for Oracle Linux]

Synopsis: ELBA-2018-4236 can now be patched using Ksplice

Users with Oracle Linux Premier Support can now use Ksplice to patch
against the latest Oracle Linux Bug Fix Advisory, ELBA-2018-4236.

INSTALLING THE UPDATES

We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack running UEKR4 4.1.12 on
OL6 and OL7 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

* RDS RDMA cancellation failure with IPv6 addresses.

A logic error when processing a cancellation request for an RDS socket
could incorrectly handle the address family resulting in failing to
cancel the request.  This could be triggered by the userspace and cause
application logic errors.
