description: |
  This kernel-linus update is based on upstream 5.15.18 and fixes atleast the
  following security issues:

  A random memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernels GPU i915 kernel
  driver functionality in the way a user may run malicious code on the GPU.
  This flaw allows a local user to crash the system or escalate their
  privileges on the system (CVE-2022-0330).

  A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernels
  vmw_execbuf_copy_fence_user function in drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/
  vmwgfx_execbuf.c in vmwgfx. This flaw allows a local attacker with user
  privileges to cause a privilege escalation problem (CVE-2022-22942).

  For other upstream fixes, see the referenced changelogs.
