Description

Updated kernel packages fix security vulnerability This kernel update is based on upstream 5.15.16 and fixes at least the following security issue: William Liu and Jamie Hill-Daniel discovered that the file system context functionality in the Linux kernel contained an integer underflow vulnerability, leading to an out-of-bounds write.
