We are wondering if the RDMA related vulnerability CVE-2026-53133 is still unpatched in Alma Linux as we didn’t find a related AlmaLinux Securities Advisonary number.
Could anybody confirm that Alma Linux 8 and 9 with the most recent security patches are immune against CVE-2026-53133?
The corresponding RHEL versions are apparently not affected: cve-details
In other words, the RHEL kernels do not contain that vulnerable code and therefore do not need any patch.
AlmaLinux is compatible with RHEL. Could AlmaLinux kernel contain code that RHEL kernel does not? Yes, but that sounds unlikely.
Only the team that builds AlmaLinux can confirm. They are usually at the chat.
