Synopsis: RHBA-2019:1651 can now be patched using Ksplice

Systems running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 can now use Ksplice to
patch against the latest Red Hat Bug Fix Advisory, RHBA-2019:1651.

INSTALLING THE UPDATES

We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack running RHEL 6 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

* Memory leak when releasing xenbus file.

A missing free of resources when releasing xenbus file could lead to a
memory leak. A local attacker could use this flaw to exhaust kernel
memory and cause a denial-of-service.

SUPPORT

Ksplice support is available at ksplice-support_ww at oracle.com.
