Description

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP1 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed : CVE-2020-8992: An issue was discovered in ext4_protect_reserved_inode in fs/ext4/block_validity.c that allowed attackers to cause a soft lockup via a crafted journal size (bnc#1164069).

CVE-2019-19966: There was a use-after-free in cpia2_exit() in drivers/media/usb/cpia2/cpia2_v4l.c that could have caused a denial of service, aka CID-dea37a972655 (bnc#1159841). CVE-2019-19447: Mounting a crafted ext4 filesystem image, performing some operations, and unmounting could have led to a use-after-free in fs/ext4/super.c (bnc#1158819). CVE-2019-19319: A slab-out-of-bounds write access could have occured when setxattr was called after mounting of a specially crafted ext4 image (bnc#1158021). CVE-2019-19767: There were multiple use-after-free errors in __ext4_expand_extra_isize and ext4_xattr_set_entry, related to fs/ext4/inode.c and fs/ext4/super.c, aka CID-4ea99936a163 (bnc#1159297).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details. 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.
