Title:	Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2021-0397)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'kernel, kmod-virtualbox, kmod-xtables-addons' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0397 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'kernel, kmod-virtualbox, kmod-xtables-addons' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0397 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: This kernel update is based on upstream 5.10.56 and fixes at least the following security issues: In the Linux kernel through 5.13.7, an unprivileged BPF program can obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a Speculative Store Bypass side-channel attack because the protection mechanism neglects the possibility of uninitialized memory locations on the BPF stack (CVE-2021-34556). In the Linux kernel through 5.13.7, an unprivileged BPF program can obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a Speculative Store Bypass side-channel attack because a certain preempting store operation does not necessarily occur before a store operation that has an attacker-controlled value (CVE-2021-35477). Other fixes in this update: - btrfs: fix lost inode on log replay after mix of fsync, rename and inode eviction - btrfs: fix race causing unnecessary inode logging during link and rename - watchdog: iTCO_wdt: Fix detection of SMI-off case (fixes sporadic reboots on some systems) - Revert 'ACPICA: Fix memory leak caused by _CID repair function', fixing boot failures on some systems - fix another ACPI issue causing some systems to boot slowly or not at all after kernel 5.10.50 - revert: 'scsi: sr: Return appropriate error code when disk is ejected' (fixes DVD opening on resume from suspend or standby, mga #29262) - Revert 'usb: renesas-xhci: Fix handling of unknown ROM state' (fixes renesas usb pci stopped working, mga #29285) - Revert 'drm/i915: Propagate errors on awaiting already signaled fences' and 'drm/i915/gem: Asynchronous cmdparser' (fixes an issue where an app hang can cause X server to hang) For other upstream fixes, see the referenced changelogs. Affected Software/OS: 'kernel, kmod-virtualbox, kmod-xtables-addons' package(s) on Mageia 8. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 2.1 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
