Vulnerability Information

Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

The openSUSE Leap 42.2 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed :

- CVE-2017-1000111: Fixed a race condition in net-packet code that could be exploited to cause out-of-bounds memory access (bsc#1052365).

- CVE-2017-1000112: Fixed a race condition in net-packet code that could have been exploited by unprivileged users to gain root access. (bsc#1052311).

- CVE-2017-8831: The saa7164_bus_get function in drivers/media/pci/saa7164/saa7164-bus.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access) or possibly have unspecified other impact by changing a certain sequence-number value, aka a 'double fetch' vulnerability (bnc#1037994).

The following non-security bugs were fixed :

- IB/hfi1: Wait for QSFP modules to initialize (bsc#1019151).

- bcache: force trigger gc (bsc#1038078).

- bcache: only recovery I/O error for writethrough mode (bsc#1043652).

- block: do not allow updates through sysfs until registration completes (bsc#1047027).

- ibmvnic: Check for transport event on driver resume (bsc#1051556, bsc#1052709).

- ibmvnic: Initialize SCRQ's during login renegotiation (bsc#1052223).

- ibmvnic: Report rx buffer return codes as netdev_dbg (bsc#1052794).

- iommu/amd: Fix schedule-while-atomic BUG in initialization code (bsc1052533).

- libnvdimm, pmem: fix a NULL pointer BUG in nd_pmem_notify (bsc#1023175).

- libnvdimm: fix badblock range handling of ARS range (bsc#1023175).

- qeth: fix L3 next-hop im xmit qeth hdr (bnc#1052773, LTC#157374).

- scsi_devinfo: fixup string compare (bsc#1037404).

- scsi_dh_alua: suppress errors from unsupported devices (bsc#1038792).

- vfs: fix missing inode_get_dev sites (bsc#1052049).

- x86/dmi: Switch dmi_remap() from ioremap() to ioremap_cache() (bsc#1051399).

Solution

Update the affected the Linux Kernel packages.
