A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A corrupted timer tree caused the task wakeup to be missing in the timerqueue_add function in lib/timerqueue.c. This flaw allows a local attacker with special user privileges to cause a denial of service, slowing and eventually stopping the system while running OSP.

Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.
Yiqi Sun and Kevin Wang discovered that the cgroups implementation in the

release_agent feature. A local attacker could use this to gain
administrative privileges. (CVE-2022-0492)

Title: Linux kernel vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.
Nadav Amit discovered that the hugetlb implementation in the Linux kernel
did not perform TLB flushes under certain conditions. A local attacker
could use this to leak or alter data from other processes that use huge
pages. (CVE-2021-4002)
It was discovered that a race condition existed in the timer implementation
in the Linux kernel. A privileged attacker could use this cause a denial of

It was discovered that a race condition existed in the overlay file system
implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to
