✅ 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. Red Hat recommends treating all kernel errata as security-relevant. Given the kernel's fundamental role, any bug has a higher chance of impacting system security, even if that impact only becomes clear after a fix is published. Therefore, Red Hat prioritizes delivering fixes that improve our customers' overall security posture. Because of this proactive approach, a patch may be associated with a CVE assignment at a future date. Retroactive CVE assignments are always documented in the corresponding errata and on Red Hat's CVE pages. We strongly advise against delaying updates, as doing so may leave your system exposed when protections are already available. Workaround: To mitigate this issue, prevent the `siw` kernel module from loading. Create a file `/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-siw.conf` with the following content: ``` blacklist siw install siw /bin/true ``` After creating the file, regenerate the initramfs and reboot the system for the changes to take effect: ```bash dracut -f -v reboot ``` This mitigation will disable the Soft iWARP functionality, which may impact applications relying on it. A system reboot is required for the changes to be fully applied. Workaround: To mitigate this issue, prevent the `sctp` kernel module from loading. Create a file named `/etc/modprobe.d/disable-sctp.conf` with the following content: ``` install sctp /bin/true blacklist sctp ``` After creating the file, regenerate the initramfs and reboot the system for the changes to take effect. Applications or services that rely on the SCTP protocol cannot use this mitigation and should prioritize applying the fix.
