Summary
Important: kernel security, bug fix, and enhancement update
Details

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system.

Security Fix(es):

  • kernel: nvme-tcp: reject a read that transferred too few bytes (CVE-2026-89480)

  • kernel: KVM: arm64: Handle negative S1 walk levels in VNCR TLB size evaluation (CVE-2026-89775)

Bug Fix(es) and Enhancement(s):

  • KVM: s390: Limit adapter indicator access to mapped page [rhel-10.2.z] (JIRA:Rocky Linux-188661)

  • crypto: xxhash64 should not be fips approved [rhel-10.2.z] (JIRA:Rocky Linux-254943)

  • kata-tdx TD vCPU stuck at reset vector (EIP=0xFFF0) on Intel Xeon 6 (Granite Rapids / Sierra Forest) ? guest never executes. (10.2.z) (JIRA:Rocky Linux-260402)
