✅ Remediation

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect. Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is to skip loading the affected module sch_qfq onto the system until we have a fix available. This can be done by a blacklist mechanism and will ensure the driver is not loaded at the boot time. ~~~ How do I blacklist a kernel module to prevent it from loading automatically? https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 ~~~ Workaround: To mitigate this issue, prevent module cls_fw from being loaded. Please see https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 for how to blacklist a kernel module to prevent it from loading automatically. Workaround: To mitigate this issue, prevent the module cls_u32 from being loaded by blacklisting the module to prevent it from loading automatically. ~~~ https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 ~~~ Workaround: To mitigate this issue, prevent the module, sch_qfq from being loaded. Please see https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 for information on how to blacklist a kernel module to prevent it from loading automatically.
