The CentOS team has recently released kernel security patches for multiple versions including 64-bit (x86_64) CentOS 7, focusing on repairing the Meltdown and Specter vulnerabilities that broke out recently. CentOS 7 is based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. The security updates released this time are customized and optimized based on the repair patches recently released by Red Hat.
Currently problematic software includes kernel-3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64.rpm, kernel-abi-whitelists-3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.noarch.rpm, kernel-debug-3.10 .0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64.rpm, kernel-debug-devel-3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64.rpm, kernel-devel-3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64.rpm and kernel-doc-3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.noarch.rpm.
In addition kernel-headers-3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64.rpm, kernel-tools-3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64.rpm, kernel-tools-libs-3.10.0- 693.11.6.el7.x86_64.rpm, kernel-tools-libs-devel-3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64.rpm, perf-3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64.rpm and python- perf-3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.x86_64.rpm also needs to be updated.
CentOS maintainer Karanbir Singh recommends that all CentOS 7 users install the patch package as soon as possible, and only informs users who also have two CPU vulnerabilities around them to apply for patches as much as possible.
