"This update for the Linux Kernel 3.12.61-52_72 fixes one issue. The
following security bugs were fixed :
- CVE-2017-1000364: An issue was discovered in the size of
the stack guard page on Linux, specifically a 4k stack
guard page is not sufficiently large and can be 'jumped'
over (the stack guard page is bypassed) (bsc#1039496).
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues."
