The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP5 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed :

CVE-2020-15436: Fixed a use after free vulnerability in fs/block_dev.c which could have allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (bsc#1179141).

CVE-2020-15437: Fixed a NULL pointer dereference which could have allowed local users to cause a denial of service(bsc#1179140).

CVE-2020-25668: Fixed a concurrency use-after-free in con_font_op (bsc#1178123).

CVE-2020-25669: Fixed a use-after-free read in sunkbd_reinit() (bsc#1178182).

CVE-2020-25704: Fixed a leak in perf_event_parse_addr_filter() (bsc#1178393).

CVE-2020-27777: Restrict RTAS requests from userspace (bsc#1179107)

CVE-2020-28915: Fixed a buffer over-read in the fbcon code which could have been used by local attackers to read kernel memory (bsc#1178886).

CVE-2020-28974: Fixed a slab-out-of-bounds read in fbcon which could have been used by local attackers to read privileged information or potentially crash the kernel (bsc#1178589).

CVE-2020-29371: Fixed uninitialized memory leaks to userspace (bsc#1179429).

CVE-2020-25705: Fixed an issue which could have allowed to quickly scan open UDP ports. This flaw allowed an off-path remote user to effectively bypassing source port UDP randomization (bsc#1175721).

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