security and bugfixes.
The following security bugs were fixed:
- CVE-2015-1339: A memory leak in cuse could be used to exhaust kernel
memory. (bsc#969356).
- CVE-2015-7799: The slhc_init function in drivers/net/slip/slhc.c in the
Linux kernel did not ensure that certain slot numbers are valid, which
allowed local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
dereference and system crash) via a crafted PPPIOCSMAXCID ioctl call
(bnc#949936 951638).
- CVE-2015-7872: The key_gc_unused_keys function in security/keys/gc.c in
the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS)
via crafted keyctl commands (bnc#951440).
- CVE-2015-7884: The vivid_fb_ioctl function in
drivers/media/platform/vivid/vivid-osd.c in the Linux kernel did not
initialize a certain structure member, which allowed local users to
obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted
application (bnc#951626).
- CVE-2015-8104: The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel allowed guest OS
users to cause a denial of service (host OS panic or hang) by triggering
many #DB (aka Debug) exceptions, related to svm.c (bnc#954404).
- CVE-2015-8709: kernel/ptrace.c in the Linux kernel mishandled uid and
gid mappings, which allowed local users to gain privileges by
establishing a user namespace, waiting for a root process to enter that
namespace with an unsafe uid or gid, and then using the ptrace system
call. NOTE: the vendor states 'there is no kernel bug here (bnc#959709).
- CVE-2015-8767: net/sctp/sm_sideeffect.c in the Linux kernel did not
properly manage the relationship between a lock and a socket, which
allowed local users to cause a denial of service (deadlock) via a
crafted sctp_accept call. (bsc#961509)
- CVE-2015-8785: The fuse_fill_write_pages function in fs/fuse/file.c in
the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service
(infinite loop) via a writev system call that triggers a zero length for
the first segment of an iov (bnc#963765).
- CVE-2015-8787: The nf_nat_redirect_ipv4 function in
net/netfilter/nf_nat_redirect.c in the Linux kernel allowed remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and
system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by sending
certain IPv4 packets to an incompletely configured interface, a related
issue to CVE-2003-1604 (bnc#963931).
- CVE-2015-8812: A flaw was found in the CXGB3 kernel driver when the
network was considered congested. The kernel would incorrectly
