Oracle Linux: CVE-2023-52458: ELSA-2024-4928: kernel security update (MODERATE) (Multiple Advisories)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: add check that partition length needs to be aligned with block size
Before calling add partition or resize partition, there is no check
on whether the length is aligned with the logical block size.
If the logical block size of the disk is larger than 512 bytes,
then the partition size maybe not the multiple of the logical block size,
and when the last sector is read, bio_truncate() will adjust the bio size,
resulting in an IO error if the size of the read command is smaller than
the logical block size.If integrity data is supported, this will also
result in a null pointer dereference when calling bio_integrity_free.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's block subsystem, where a NULL pointer dereference occurs if partitions are created or resized with a size that is not a multiple of the logical block size. This flaw allows a privileged attacker to cause a denial of service.
