The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2026:1781347338 advisory.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: mdio: unexport __init-annotated     mdio_bus_init() EXPORT_SYMBOL and __init is a bad combination because the .init.text section is freed up     after the initialization. Hence, modules cannot use symbols annotated __init. The access to a freed symbol     may end up with kernel panic. modpost used to detect it, but it has been broken for a decade. Recently, I     fixed modpost so it started to warn it again, then this showed up in linux-next builds. There are two ways     to fix it: - Remove __init - Remove EXPORT_SYMBOL I chose the latter for this case because the only in-     tree call-site, drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c is never compiled as modular. (CONFIG_PHYLIB is boolean)     (CVE-2022-49350)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: selinux: fix memleak in     security_read_state_kernel() In this function, it directly returns the result of __security_read_policy     without freeing the allocated memory in *data, cause memory leak issue, so free the memory if
    __security_read_policy failed. [PM: subject line tweak] (CVE-2022-50201)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: tcpci: fix of node     refcount leak in tcpci_register_port() I got the following report while doing device(mt6370-tcpc) load     test with CONFIG_OF_UNITTEST and CONFIG_OF_DYNAMIC enabled: OF: ERROR: memory leak, expected refcount 1     instead of 2, of_node_get()/of_node_put() unbalanced - destroy cset entry: attach overlay node     /i2c/pmic@34/tcpc/connector The 'fwnode' set in tcpci_parse_config() which is called in     tcpci_register_port(), its node refcount is increased in device_get_named_child_node(). It needs be put     while exiting, so call fwnode_handle_put() in the error path of tcpci_register_port() and in     tcpci_unregister_port() to avoid leak. (CVE-2022-50246)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drivers: serial: jsm: fix some leaks     in probe This error path needs to unwind instead of just returning directly. (CVE-2022-50312)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: thermal: intel_powerclamp: Use     get_cpu() instead of smp_processor_id() to avoid crash When CPU 0 is offline and intel_powerclamp is used     to inject idle, it generates kernel BUG: BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code:

Here CPU 0     is the control CPU by default and changed to the current CPU, if CPU 0 offlined. This check has to be     performed under cpus_read_lock(), hence the above warning. Use get_cpu() instead of smp_processor_id() to     avoid this BUG. [ rjw: Subject edits ] (CVE-2022-50494)
