- bonding: Prevent IPv6 link local address on enslaved devices (PSBM-42433)
- kswap activity restriction in case high-order requests (PSBM-44291)
- force charge swapin readahead pages if in ub0 (PSBM-44857)
Kernel RHEL6 stable 042stab113.17
- Crash in restore_one_vfsmount() on restoring shared non-master mounts. (PSBM-42471)
- Introduced FADV_DEACTIVATE flag in fadvise() to be able to move file pages from the active to the inactive list. (PSBM-42664)
- Race between keyctl_read() and keyctl_revoke() could crash the host. (PSBM-43799, CVE-2015-7550)

Kernel RHEL5 stable 028stab120.1
- Rebase to RHEL5 kernel 2.6.32-408.el5
- A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's networking implementation handled UDP packets with incorrect checksum values. A remote attacker could potentially use this flaw to trigger an infinite loop in the kernel, resulting in a denial of service on the system, or cause a denial of service in applications using the edge triggered epoll functionality (CVE-2015-5364, CVE-2015-5366)

Kernel RHEL5 stable 028stab119.6
- Improved accounting for network-related memory objects (PCLIN-32553)
- Introduced a per-container limit for the number of mounts (PCLIN-32554)
- Introduced a per-container limit for IPv4 network interface aliases (PCLIN-32555)
