  security and bugfixes.

  The following security bugs were fixed:

  - CVE-2016-1583: Prevent the usage of mmap when the lower file system does
  not allow it. This could have lead to local privilege escalation when
  ecryptfs-utils was installed and /sbin/mount.ecryptfs_private was setuid
  (bsc#983143).

  - CVE-2016-4565: The InfiniBand (aka IB) stack in the Linux kernel
  incorrectly relies on the write system call, which allows local users to
  cause a denial of service (kernel memory write operation) or possibly
  have unspecified other impact via a uAPI interface. (bsc#979548)

  - CVE-2016-4805: Use-after-free vulnerability in
  drivers/net/ppp/ppp_generic.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to
  cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash,
  or spinlock) or possibly have unspecified other impact by removing a
  network namespace, related to the ppp_register_net_channel and
  ppp_unregister_channel functions.  (bsc#980371).

  - CVE-2016-4951: The tipc_nl_publ_dump function in net/tipc/socket.c in
  the Linux kernel did not verify socket existence, which allowed local
  users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system
  crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a dumpit
  operation. (bsc#981058).

  - CVE-2016-5244: An information leak vulnerability in function
  rds_inc_info_copy of file net/rds/recv.c was fixed that might have
  leaked kernel stack data. (bsc#983213).

  - CVE-2016-4580: The x25_negotiate_facilities function in
  net/x25/x25_facilities.c in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize
  a certain data structure, which allowed attackers to
  obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via an X.25 Call
  Request. (bsc#981267).

  - CVE-2016-0758: Tags with indefinite length could have corrupted pointers
  in asn1_find_indefinite_length (bsc#979867).

  - CVE-2016-2053: The asn1_ber_decoder function in lib/asn1_decoder.c in
  the Linux kernel allowed attackers to cause a denial of service (panic)
  via an ASN.1 BER file that lacks a public key, leading to mishandling by
  the public_key_verify_signature function in
  crypto/asymmetric_keys/public_key.c (bnc#963762).

  - CVE-2013-7446: Use-after-free vulnerability in net/unix/af_unix.c in the
  Linux kernel allowed local users to bypass intended AF_UNIX socket
  permissions or cause a denial of service (panic) via crafted epoll_ctl
  calls (bnc#955654).

  - CVE-2016-3134: The netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel did not
  validate certain offset fields, which allowed local users to ...
