script_tag(name:"insight", value:"This Linux kernel update fixes various security issues and bugs in the SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP4 kernel.
The following security issues have been fixed:
*
CVE-2012-2319: A memory corruption when mounting a hfsplus filesystem was fixed that could be used by local attackers able to mount filesystem to crash the system.
*
CVE-2012-2313: The dl2k network card driver lacked permission handling for some ethtool ioctls, which could allow local attackers to start/stop the network card.
*
CVE-2011-2928: The befs_follow_linkl function in fs/befs/linuxvfs.c in the Linux kernel did not validate the lenght attribute of long symlinsk, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (incorrect pointer dereference and Ooops) by accessing a long symlink on a malformed Be filesystem.
*
CVE-2011-4077: Fixed a memory corruption possibility in xfs readlink, which could be used by local attackers to crash the system or potentially execute code by mounting a prepared xfs filesystem image.
*
CVE-2011-4324: A BUG() error report in the nfs4xdr routines on a NFSv4 mount was fixed that could happen during mknod.
*
CVE-2011-4330: Mounting a corrupted hfs filesystem could lead to a buffer overflow.
The following non-security issues have been fixed:
* kernel: pfault task state race (bnc#764128,LTC#81724).
* ap: Toleration for ap bus devices with device type 10
(bnc#761389).
* hugetlb, numa: fix interleave mpol reference count
(bnc#762111).
* cciss: fixup kdump (bnc#730200).
* kdump: Avoid allocating bootmem map over crash reserved region (bnc#749168, bnc#722400, bnc#742881).
* qeth: Improve OSA Express 4 blkt defaults
(bnc#754964,LTC#80325).
* zcrypt: Fix parameter checking for ZSECSENDCPRB ioctl
(bnc#754964,LTC#80378).
* virtio: add names to virtqueue struct, mapping from devices to queues (bnc#742148).
* virtio: find_vqs/del_vqs virtio operations
(bnc#742148).
* virtio_pci: optional MSI-X support (bnc#742148).
* virtio_pci: split up vp_interrupt (bnc#742148).
* knfsd: nfsd4: fix laundromat shutdown race (752556).
* driver core: Check for valid device in bus_find_device() (bnc#729685).
* VMware detection backport from mainline (bnc#671124,
bnc#747381).
* net: adding memory barrier to the poll and receive callbacks (bnc#746397 bnc#750928).
* qla2xxx: drop reference before wait for completion
(bnc#744592).
* qla2xxx: drop reference before wait for completion
(bnc#744592).
* ixgbe driver sets all WOL flags upon initialization so that machine is powered on as soon at it is switched off
(bnc#693639)
* Properly release MSI(X) vector(s) when MSI(X) gets disabled (bnc#723294, bnc#721869).
* scsi: Always retry internal target error (bnc#745640).
* cxgb4: fix parent device access in netdev_printk
(bnc#733155).
* lcs: lcs offline failure (bnc#752486,LTC#79788).
* qeth: add missing wake_up call (bnc#752486,LTC#79899).
* NFSD: Fill in WCC data for ... [Please see the references for more information on the vulnerabilities]");
