F22 will need further investigation as > the patch doesn't apply directly. Looking at it more closely, the vulnerability requires Hyper-V SynIC support, which was not added until the 4.5 kernel release. F22 is currently on 4.4.y and will remain so until EOL, therefore it is not impacted by this. kernel-4.5.5-201.fc23 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 23. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-06f1572324 kernel-4.5.5-201.fc23 has been pushed to the Fedora 23 testing repository.
