tag_insight = "This patch updates the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 kernel to fix
  various security issues and some bugs.

  Following security issues were fixed:
  CVE-2010-4242: The hci_uart_tty_open function in the HCI UART driver
  (drivers/bluetooth/hci_ldisc.c) in the Linux kernel did not verify
  whether the tty has a write operation, which allowed local users
  to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via vectors
  related to the Bluetooth driver.

  CVE-2010-4527: The load_mixer_volumes function in sound/oss/soundcard.c
  in the OSS sound subsystem in the Linux kernel incorrectly expected
  that a certain name field ends with a '\0' character, which allowed
  local users to conduct buffer overflow attacks and gain privileges,
  or possibly obtain sensitive information from kernel memory, via a
  SOUND_MIXER_SETLEVELS ioctl call.

  CVE-2010-4529: Integer underflow in the irda_getsockopt function in
  net/irda/af_irda.c in the Linux kernel on platforms other than x86
  allowed local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from
  kernel heap memory via an IRLMP_ENUMDEVICES getsockopt call.

  CVE-2010-4342: The aun_incoming function in net/econet/af_econet.c in
  the Linux kernel, when Econet is enabled, allowed remote attackers
  to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS)
  by sending an Acorn Universal Networking (AUN) packet over UDP.

  CVE-2010-2946: fs/jfs/xattr.c in the Linux kernel did not properly
  handle a certain legacy format for storage of extended attributes,
  which might have allowed local users by bypass intended xattr namespace
  restrictions via an &quot;os2.&quot; substring at the beginning of a name.

  CVE-2010-3848: Stack-based buffer overflow in the econet_sendmsg
  function in net/econet/af_econet.c in the Linux kernel, when an
  econet address is configured, allowed local users to gain privileges
  by providing a large number of iovec structures.

  CVE-2010-3849: The econet_sendmsg function in net/econet/af_econet.c
  in the Linux kernel, when an econet address is configured, allowed
  local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference
  and OOPS) via a sendmsg call that specifies a NULL value for the
  remote address field.

  CVE-2010-3850: The ec_dev_ioctl function in net/econet/af_econet.c
  in the Linux kernel does not require the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability,
  which allowed local users to bypass intended access restrictions and
  configure econet addresses via an SIOCSIFADDR ioctl call.

  CVE-2010-4258: The do_exit function in kernel/exit.c in the Linux
