| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| tools/rtla: Fix clang warning about mount_point var size |
| |
| clang is reporting this warning: |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
| https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8a585914c266dc044f53b5c83c170f79b45fcf9a |
