Qualys discovered that several vulnerabilities existed in the AppArmor Linux kernel Security Module (LSM). An unprivileged local attacker could use these issues to load, replace, and remove arbitrary AppArmor profiles causing denial of service, exposure of sensitive information (kernel memory), local privilege escalation, or possibly escape a container. (LP: #2143853) Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - ARM64 architecture; - MIPS architecture; - Nios II architecture; - PA-RISC architecture; - RISC-V architecture; - S390 architecture; - Sun Sparc architecture; - User-Mode Linux (UML); - x86 architecture; - Xtensa architecture; - Block layer subsystem; - Cryptographic API; - Compute Acceleration Framework; - ACPI drivers; - ATM drivers; - Drivers core; - Block device driver; - Network block device driver; - Bluetooth drivers; - Bus devices; - Hardware random number generator core; - Character device driver; - Data acquisition framework and drivers; - CPU frequency scaling framework; - Hardware crypto device drivers; - Device frequency scaling framework; - DMA engine subsystem; - ARM SCMI message protocol; - EFI core; - Intel Stratix 10 firmware drivers; - GPU drivers; - HID subsystem; - CoreSight HW tracing drivers; - IIO subsystem; - InfiniBand drivers; - Input Device core drivers; - Input Device (Miscellaneous) drivers; - Input Device (Tablet) drivers; - IOMMU subsystem; - ISDN/mISDN subsystem; - Mailbox framework; - Multiple devices driver; - Media drivers; - Fastrpc Driver; - MOST (Media Oriented Systems Transport) drivers; - MTD block device drivers; - Ethernet bonding driver; - Network drivers; - Mellanox network drivers; - STMicroelectronics network drivers; - Texas Instruments network drivers; - Ethernet team driver; - NVME drivers; - PCI subsystem; - PCCARD (PCMCIA/CardBus) bus subsystem; - Performance monitor drive
