How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:9 kernel-rt-kvm.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-rt-kvm package and not the kernel-rt-kvm package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

net/tls: fix slab-out-of-bounds bug in decrypt_internal

The memory size of tls_ctx->rx.iv for AES128-CCM is 12 setting in tls_set_sw_offload(). The return value of crypto_aead_ivsize() for "ccm(aes)" is 16. So memcpy() require 16 bytes from 12 bytes memory space will trigger slab-out-of-bounds bug as following:

Replace the crypto_aead_ivsize() with prot->iv_size + prot->salt_size when memcpy() iv value in TLS_1_3_VERSION scenario.
