Kernel Security Update — AlmaLinux 9 (ALSA-2026:86033)

ALSA-2026:86033 updates the AlmaLinux 9 kernel (kernel-rt variants included, 5.14.0-687.59.1.el9_8) with a broad batch of fixes — openvswitch tunnel netdev_put deferred to RCU release (CVE-2026-31678), xfrm espintcp reuse handling, and further networking/filesystem corrections. Update and reboot: dnf update kernel, then restart into the new build.

Networking and encryption-path kernel flaws (openvswitch, xfrm espintcp) are remotely reachable states — unpatched, they expose the host to crashes and escalation attempts from network-triggered code paths.

Details

USN-8952-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Tornado. Unfortunately that update was incomplete due
to an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-103263, which broke static file
serving for applications that subclass Tornado’s StaticFileHandler,
such as Jupyter, and could introduce a regression. This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

It was discovered that Tornado did not properly handle certain HTTP requests
and network inputs. An attacker could possibly use these issues to cause a
denial of service, expose sensitive information, or bypass access controls.

Sıkça Sorulan Sorular

What is ALSA-2026:86033?
It is AlmaLinux's kernel erratum for AlmaLinux 9, updating kernel and kernel-rt to 5.14.0-687.59.1.el9_8 with fixes including CVE-2026-31678 (openvswitch: defer tunnel netdev_put to RCU release) and the xfrm espintcp reuse handling correction, among others.
Who should apply it?
Every AlmaLinux 9 server — with priority on hosts using OpenVSwitch tunnels, IPsec espintcp transports, or running the RT kernel variant, which ships in the same erratum.
How do I apply the fix?
Run dnf update kernel kernel-rt (as installed) and reboot; verify with uname -r reporting 5.14.0-687.59.1.el9_8. KernelCare users can live-patch and confirm coverage.
Why do OpenVSwitch and xfrm flaws matter for hosting?
Both are network-transport paths — tunnels and encrypted transports process attacker-influenceable traffic. Flaws there are remotely triggerable crash/escalation vectors on the server's primary network interfaces.
