I've removed the OK from the whiteboard, since we need to have all kernel flavours tested on as wide a range of hardware as possible, before they are given the OK.

Removing the validated update keyword until more testing has been completed.

All kernels normally need testing on multiple systems, with both arches.

With the exception of critical security updates with minimal changes, kernel
updates need plenty of testing.

MGA5-32 on Asus A6000VM Xfce (Intel Pentium M 740 32 bit with nvidia graphics)
No installation issues.
All seems OK

CC: (none) => herman.viaene

No sound on this Xfce laptop. I do very little multimedia on it, but I cann't imagine it never worked before.

Checked: good sound with kernel 4.4.39
With this 4.4.50 two apparent problems at first sight:
no speaker symbol in the Xfce panel
lauching pavucontrol gives "Fatal error: could not connect to Pulseaudio :OK"

Any mention of firmware issues in the journal Herman?

Shit happens. Yesterday I did a number of reboots, but all warm reboots (choose restart from the Xfce panel). This morning was a cold reboot, and there was sound again. One subsequent warm reboot did not show the problem again anymore. So I have no complaints anymore.

All looks good. Common apps work.

Neglected to mention in Comment 15 that that system also uses the grub2 bootloader. Both systems dual- or triple-boot with Mageia 6 installs, and use grub2 for compatibility.

52MB of additional disk space will be used.

47MB of packages will be retrieved.

Is it ok to continue?

wifi works as well.

Additional testing with the hardware of Comment 15, except this time with 32-bit kernel-desktop-4.4.50-2.

All still looks good.

Additional testing with the hardware of Comment 16, except this time with 64-bit kernel-server-4.4.50-2.

All still looks good.

Ok, 
a 4.4.50-2 with theese 4 minimal fixes added to get the update out fast
- dccp: fix freeing skb too early for IPV6_RECVPKTINFO (CVE-2017-6074)
- rtlwifi: rtl_usb: Fix missing entry in USB driver's private data
- Fix missing sanity check in /dev/sg
- scsi: don't BUG_ON() empty DMA transfers

Advisory text (also added to svn)


The cgroup offline implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.8.11
mishandles certain drain operations, which allows local users to cause
a denial of service (system hang) by leveraging access to a container
environment for executing a crafted application, as demonstrated by
trinity (CVE-2016-9191).

arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9 mismanages the #BP
and #OF exceptions, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of
service (guest OS crash) by declining to handle an exception thrown by
an L2 guest (CVE-2016-9588).

The sg implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.9 does not properly
restrict write operations in situations where the KERNEL_DS option is set,
which allows local users to read or write to arbitrary kernel memory
locations or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) by leveraging
access to a /dev/sg device, related to block/bsg.c and drivers/scsi/sg.c
(CVE-2016-10088).

The ext4_fill_super function in fs/ext4/super.c in the Linux kernel
through 4.9.8 does not properly validate meta block groups, which
allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service
(out-of-bounds read and system crash) via a crafted ext4 image
(CVE-2016-10208).

The load_segment_descriptor implementation in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in
the Linux kernel before 4.9.5 improperly emulates a "MOV SS, NULL
selector" instruction, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of
service (guest OS crash) or gain guest OS privileges via a crafted
application (CVE-2017-2583).

arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel through 4.9.3 allows local
users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a
denial of service (use-after-free) via a crafted application that
leverages instruction emulation for fxrstor, fxsave, sgdt, and sidt
(CVE-2017-2584).

drivers/hid/hid-corsair.c in the Linux kernel 4.9.x before 4.9.6
interacts incorrectly with the CONFIG_VMAP_STACK option, which allows
local users to cause a denial of service (system crash or memory
corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging
use of more than one virtual page for a DMA scatterlist (CVE-2017-5547).

drivers/net/ieee802154/atusb.c in the Linux kernel 4.9.x before 4.9.6
interacts incorrectly with the CONFIG_VMAP_STACK option, which allows
local users to cause a denial of service (system crash or memory
corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging
use of more than one virtual page for a DMA scatterlist (CVE-2017-5548).

The klsi_105_get_line_state function in drivers/usb/serial/kl5kusb105.c
in the Linux kernel before 4.9.5 places uninitialized heap-memory
contents into a log entry upon a failure to read the line status, which
allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading the log
(CVE-2017-5549).

The simple_set_acl function in fs/posix_acl.c in the Linux kernel before
4.9.6 preserves the setgid bit during a setxattr call involving a tmpfs
filesystem, which allows local users to gain group privileges by
leveraging the existence of a setgid program with restrictions on
execute permissions (CVE-2017-5551).

An issue was found in the Linux kernel ipv6 implementation of GRE tunnels
which allows a remote attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds access
(CVE-2017-5897).

The ipv4_pktinfo_prepare function in net/ipv4/ip_sockglue.c in the Linux
kernel through 4.9.9 allows attackers to cause a denial of service
(system crash) via (1) an application that makes crafted system calls or
possibly (2) IPv4 traffic with invalid IP options (CVE-2017-5970).

Race condition in the sctp_wait_for_sndbuf function in net/sctp/socket.c
in the Linux kernel before 4.9.11 allows local users to cause a denial
of service (assertion failure and panic) via a multithreaded application
that peels off an association in a certain buffer-full state
(CVE-2017-5986).

The dccp_rcv_state_process function in net/dccp/input.c in the Linux
kernel through 4.9.11 mishandles DCCP_PKT_REQUEST packet data structures
in the LISTEN state, which allows local users to obtain root privileges
or cause a denial of service (double free) via an application that makes
an IPV6_RECVPKTINFO setsockopt system call (CVE-2017-6074).

The tcp_splice_read function in net/ipv4/tcp.c in the Linux kernel before
4.9.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop
and soft lockup) via vectors involving a TCP packet with the URG flag
(CVE-2017-6214).

The new x86_64 desktop kernel is in use for several hours and didn't notice any regressions. All hardware seems to be working without issues (e.g. nVidia Geforce 210, HP OfficeJet 4652, Logitech USB keyboard and mouse). Both plasma and a bunch of programs I normally use seems to be working without regressions.

System boots normally
$ uname -r

No regressions noted
vbox win7 and winxp VMs OK
 
OK for mga5-64 on this system:
CPU:  Quad core Intel Core i7-6700
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 530

My testing complete installing all kernel latest (no i586 on the x86-64 systems)
and testing that they boot to a working desktop. The devel latest packages were
also installed for the dkms modules. Tested in i586 and x86-64 vb guests and host
installs.

I'll wait another 8 hours or so, to see if others report regressions before
validating the update.

All is Ok :
32-bit desktop kernel on laptop Fujitsu Celeron 430M.
32-bit desktop kernel on laptop Dell Pentium M725.
64-bit desktop kernel on laptop Acer Celeron 530M.
