Summary
Moderate: kernel-rt security update
Details

The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements.

Security Fix(es):

  • kernel: smc: Use __sk_dst_get() and dst_dev_rcu() in smc_clc_prfx_match() (CVE-2025-40168)
  • kernel: Linux kernel Bluetooth: Denial of Service due to use-after-free in connection handling (CVE-2023-53762)
  • kernel: Linux kernel: Out-of-bounds write in fbdev can lead to privilege escalation, information disclosure, or denial of service. (CVE-2025-40304)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
