In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: algif_aead - Revert to operating out-of-place

To mitigate this issue, we recommend that customers disable loading of the algif_aead module by running the following commands as an administrator user:

echo "install algif_aead /bin/false" > /etc/modprobe.d/disable-algif.conf

rmmod algif_aead

Some Amazon Linux 2 systems on the ARM64 architecture may fail the above rmmod command as they have the algif_aead module built-in. In this case, the following command and a reboot will mitigate the issue:

sudo grubby --update-kernel ALL --args "initcall_blacklist=algif_aead_init"
