script_tag(name:"insight", value:"The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 kernel was updated to 3.12.60 to receive
various security and bugfixes.
The following security bugs were fixed:
- CVE-2014-9717: fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel processes MNT_DETACH
umount2 system called without verifying that the MNT_LOCKED flag is
unset, which allowed local users to bypass intended access restrictions
and navigate to filesystem locations beneath a mount by calling umount2
within a user namespace (bnc#928547).
- CVE-2015-8816: The hub_activate function in drivers/usb/core/hub.c in
the Linux kernel did not properly maintain a hub-interface data
structure, which allowed physically proximate attackers to cause a
denial of service (invalid memory access and system crash) or possibly
have unspecified other impact by unplugging a USB hub device
(bnc#968010).
- CVE-2015-8845: The tm_reclaim_thread function in
arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c in the Linux kernel on powerpc platforms
did not ensure that TM suspend mode exists before proceeding with a
tm_reclaim call, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service
(TM Bad Thing exception and panic) via a crafted application
(bnc#975533).
- CVE-2016-0758: Fix ASN.1 indefinite length object parsing (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-2016-2143: The fork implementation in the Linux kernel on s390
platforms mishandled the case of four page-table levels, which allowed
local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly have
unspecified other impact via a crafted application, related to
arch/s390/include/asm/mmu_context.h and arch/s390/include/asm/pgalloc.h.
(bnc#970504)
- CVE-2016-2184: The create_fixed_stream_quirk function in
sound/usb/quirks.c in the snd-usb-audio driver in the Linux kernel
allowed physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service
(NULL pointer dereference or double free, and system crash) via a
crafted endpoints value in a USB device descriptor (bnc#971125).
- CVE-2016-2185: The ati_remote2_probe function in
drivers/input/misc/ati_remote2.c in the Linux kernel allowed physically
proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
dereference and system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB
device descriptor (bnc#9711 ...
