Title:	CentOS Update for kernel CESA-2019:0415 centos6
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'kernel'; package(s) announced via the CESA-2019:0415 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'kernel' package(s) announced via the CESA-2019:0415 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. Security Fix(es): * kernel: MIDI driver race condition leads to a double-free (CVE-2018-10902) 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. Bug Fix(es): * Previously backported upstream patch caused a change in the behavior of page fault handler. As a consequence, applications compiled through GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) version 4.4.7 sometimes generated stack access exceeding the 64K limit. Running such applications subsequently triggered a segmentation fault. With this update, the 64k limit check in the page fault handler has been removed. As a result, running the affected applications no longer triggers the segmentation fault in the described scenario. Note that removing the limit check does not impact the integrity of the kernel itself. (BZ#1644401) Affected Software/OS: kernel on CentOS 6. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 4.6 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
