  These security issues were fixed:

  - CVE-2017-7500: rpm did not properly handle RPM installations when a
  destination path was a symbolic link to a directory, possibly changing
  ownership and permissions of an arbitrary directory, and RPM files being
  placed in an arbitrary destination (bsc#943457).

  - CVE-2017-7501: rpm used temporary files with predictable names when
  installing an RPM. An attacker with ability to write in a directory
  where files will be installed could create symbolic links to an
  arbitrary location and modify content, and possibly permissions to
  arbitrary files, which could be used for denial of service or possibly
  privilege escalation (bsc#943457)

  This non-security issue was fixed:

  - Use ksym-provides tool [bsc#1077692]

  This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-12:Update update project.
