NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-headers package and not the kernel-headers package as distributed by RHEL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

crypto: null - Use spin lock instead of mutex

As the null algorithm may be freed in softirq context through af_alg, use spin locks instead of mutexes to protect the default null algorithm.
