A flaw was found in the filelock_init in fs/locks.c function in the Linux kernel. This issue can lead to host memory exhaustion due to memcg not limiting the number of Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX) file locks.

An update of the linux package has been released.

The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.10.218-206.860. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.10-2024-062 advisory.

    2024-07-03: CVE-2024-36889 was added to this advisory.

    2024-07-03: CVE-2023-52585 was added to this advisory.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    net: sched: flower: protect fl_walk() with rcu (CVE-2021-47402)

    A flaw was found in the filelock_init in fs/locks.c function in the Linux kernel. This issue can lead to     host memory exhaustion due to memcg not limiting the number of Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX)     file locks. (CVE-2022-0480)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    drm/amdgpu: Fix possible NULL dereference in amdgpu_ras_query_error_status_helper() (CVE-2023-52585)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
