"This update fixes various security issues and some bugs in the SUSE
Linux Enterprise 9 kernel.

The following security bugs were fixed :

  - A race condition in the pipe(2) systemcall could be used
    by local attackers to execute code. (CVE-2009-3547)

  - On x86_64 systems a information leak of high register
    contents (upper 32bit) was fixed. (CVE-2009-2910)

  - The (1) agp_generic_alloc_page and (2)
    agp_generic_alloc_pages functions in
    drivers/char/agp/generic.c in the agp subsystem in the
    Linux kernel do not zero out pages that may later be
    available to a user-space process, which allows local
    users to obtain sensitive information by reading these
    pages. (CVE-2009-1192)

  - Unsigned check in the ax25 socket handler could allow
    local attackers to potentially crash the kernel or even
    execute code. (CVE-2009-2909)

  - The execve function in the Linux kernel did not properly
    clear the current->clear_child_tid pointer, which allows
    local users to cause a denial of service (memory
    corruption) or possibly gain privileges via a clone
    system call with CLONE_CHILD_SETTID or
    CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID enabled, which is not properly
    handled during thread creation and exit. (CVE-2009-2848)

  - Fixed various sockethandler getname leaks, which could
    disclose memory previously used by the kernel or other
    userland processes to the local attacker.
    (CVE-2009-3002)

  - Multiple buffer overflows in the cifs subsystem in the
    Linux kernel allow remote CIFS servers to cause a denial
    of service (memory corruption) and possibly have
    unspecified other impact via (1) a malformed Unicode
    string, related to Unicode string area alignment in
    fs/cifs/sess.c; or (2) long Unicode characters, related
    to fs/cifs/cifssmb.c and the cifs_readdir function in
    fs/cifs/readdir.c. (CVE-2009-1633)

  - The nfs4_proc_lock function in fs/nfs/nfs4proc.c in the
    NFSv4 client in the allows remote NFS servers to cause a
    denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and panic)
    by sending a certain response containing incorrect file
    attributes, which trigger attempted use of an open file
    that lacks NFSv4 state. (CVE-2009-3726)"
