Upgrade SLES:15.4 kernel-default to version 5.14.21-150400.24.122.2 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-default package and not the kernel-default package as distributed by SLES.
See How to fix? for SLES:15.4 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix wrong list_del in smc_lgr_cleanup_early
smc_lgr_cleanup_early() meant to delete the link group from the link group list, but it deleted the list head by mistake.
This may cause memory corruption since we didn't remove the real link group from the list and later memseted the link group structure. We got a list corruption panic when testing:
