CVE-2021-46932 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
There is no fixed version for RHEL:8 kernel-modules.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-modules package and not the kernel-modules package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: appletouch - initialize work before device registration
Syzbot has reported warning in __flush_work(). This warning is caused by work->func == NULL, which means missing work initialization.
This may happen, since input_dev->close() calls cancel_work_sync(&dev->work), but dev->work initalization happens after input_register_device() call.
So this patch moves dev->work initialization before registering input device
