SUSE-SU-2021:1605-1 Security update for the Linux Kernel

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP5 RT kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed: - CVE-2020-36312: Fixed an issue within virt/kvm/kvmmain.c that had a kvmiobusunregisterdev memory leak upon a kmalloc failure bnc1184509. - CVE-2021-29650: Fix...

kernel/bpf/verifier.c in the Linux kernel through 5.12.1 performs undesirable speculative loads leading to disclosure of stack content via side-channel attacks aka CID-801c6058d14a. The specific concern is not protecting the BPF stack area against speculative loads. Also the BPF stack can contain uninitialized data that might represent sensitive information previously operated on by the kernel.
