edited Mar 3, 2022 11:19PM in Linux Operating System (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered

Hi Team,

In our environment Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, we are using Oracle Linux 7.7 version. 

We notified about Pwnkit vulnerability. 

I have below queries regarding Pwnkit vulnerability:


(1) Is Oracle Linux 7.X versions are impacted due to Pwnkit vulnerability.

(2) What are the steps to remediate the Pwnkit vulnerability in OCI in Oracle Linux 7.7 version.

(3) What are the packages impacted due to Pwnkit vulnerability, package names.

(4) Do we need the server reboot after patching the server.

(5) Do we take the backup before going to remediate the server. 


If you have any further query let me 


Thanks & Regards,


Vijay Kumar
