The kernel-rt packages provide the real time linux kernel, which enables fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements...Security Fix(es):

    kernel: bpf: incorrect verifier pruning leads to unsafe code paths being incorrectly marked as safe (cve-2023-2163).
    Kernel: tun: bugs for oversize packet when napi frags enabled in tun_napi_alloc_frags (cve-2023-3812).
    Kernel: use after free in unix_stream_sendpage (cve-2023-4622).
    Kernel: net/sched: sch_hfsc uaf (cve-2023-4623).
    Kernel: use-after-free in sch_qfq network scheduler (cve-2023-4921).
    Kernel: netfilter: potential slab-out-of-bound access due to integer underflow (cve-2023-42753).
    Kernel: igb driver inadequate buffer size for frames larger than mtu (cve-2023-45871).
    Hw: intel: gather data sampling (gds) side channel vulnerability (cve-2022-40982).
    Kernel: uaf during login when accessing the shost ipaddress (cve-2023-2162).
    Kernel: fbcon: out-of-sync arrays in fbcon_mode_deleted due to wrong con2fb_map assignment (cve-2023-38409).
    Kernel: use-after-free in smb2_is_status_io_timeout() (cve-2023-1192).
