The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP2 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed :

CVE-2020-25285: A race condition between hugetlb sysctl handlers in mm/hugetlb.c could be used by local attackers to corrupt memory, cause a NULL pointer dereference, or possibly have unspecified other impact (bnc#1176485).

CVE-2020-16120: Fixed permission check to open real file when using overlayfs. It was possible to have a file not readable by an unprivileged user be copied to a mountpoint controlled by that user and then be able to access the file. (bsc#1177470)

CVE-2020-14351: Fixed a race condition in the perf_mmap_close() function (bsc#1177086).

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.
