Description

Security update for the Linux Kernel

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP5 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed:

  • CVE-2018-9517: Fixed possible memory corruption due to a use after free in pppol2tp_connect (bsc#1108488).
  • CVE-2019-3874: Fixed possible denial of service attack via SCTP socket buffer used by a userspace applications (bnc#1129898).
  • CVE-2019-3900: Fixed an infinite loop issue while handling incoming packets in handle_rx() (bnc#1133374).
  • CVE-2021-3640: Fixed a Use-After-Free vulnerability in function sco_sock_sendmsg() in the bluetooth stack (bsc#1188172).
  • CVE-2021-3653: Missing validation of the int_ctl VMCB field and allows a malicious L1 guest to enable AVIC support for the L2 guest. (bsc#1189399).
  • CVE-2021-3656: Missing validation of the the virt_ext VMCB field and allows a malicious L1 guest to disable both VMLOAD/VMSAVE intercepts and VLS for the L2 guest (bsc#1189400).
  • CVE-2021-3679: A lack of CPU resource in tracing module functionality was found in the way user uses trace ring buffer in a specific way. Only privileged local users (with CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability) could use this flaw to starve the resources causing denial of service (bnc#1189057).
  • CVE-2021-3732: Mounting overlayfs inside an unprivileged user namespace can reveal files (bsc#1189706).
  • CVE-2021-3753: Fixed race out-of-bounds in virtual terminal handling (bsc#1190025).
  • CVE-2021-3759: Unaccounted ipc objects in Linux kernel could have lead to breaking memcg limits and DoS attacks (bsc#1190115).
  • CVE-2021-38160: Data corruption or loss could be triggered by an untrusted device that supplies a buf->len value exceeding the buffer size in drivers/char/virtio_console.c (bsc#1190117)
  • CVE-2021-38198: arch/x86/kvm/mmu/paging_tmpl.h incorrectly computes the access permissions of a shadow page, leading to a missing guest protection page fault (bnc#1189262).
  • CVE-2021-38204: drivers/usb/host/max3421-hcd.c allowed physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and panic) by removing a MAX-3421 USB device in certain situations (bnc#1189291).
  • CVE-2021-34556: Fixed side-channel attack via a Speculative Store Bypass via unprivileged BPF program that could have obtain sensitive information from kernel memory (bsc#1188983).
  • CVE-2021-35477: Fixed BPF stack frame pointer which could have been abused to disclose content of arbitrary kernel memory (bsc#1188985).
  • CVE-2020-12770: Fixed sg_remove_request call in a certain failure cases (bsc#1171420).

  • KVM: SVM: Call SEV Guest Decommission if ASID binding fails (12sp5).
  • NFSv4/pNFS: Do not call _nfs4_pnfs_v3_ds_connect multiple times (git-fixes).
  • NFSv4: Initialise connection to the server in nfs4_alloc_client() (bsc#1040364).
  • PCI/MSI: Correct misleading comments (git-fixes).
  • PCI/MSI: Do not set invalid bits in MSI mask (git-fixes).
