Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Optional AUS (v. 6.5) - x86_64

3. Description:

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux
operating system.

Security Fix(es):

Bug Fix(es):

* The kernel build requirements have been updated to the GNU Compiler
Collection (GCC) compiler version that has the support for Retpolines. The
Retpolines mechanism is a software construct that leverages specific
knowledge of the underlying hardware to mitigate the branch target
injection, also known as Spectre variant 2 vulnerability described in
CVE-2017-5715. (BZ#1554256)
