Security update for the Linux Kernel (important)

The openSUSE 13.1 kernel was updated to 3.12.67 to receive various
security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed:

• CVE-2013-5634: arch/arm/kvm/arm.c in the Linux kernel on the ARM
  platform, when KVM is used, allowed host OS users to cause a denial of
  service (NULL pointer dereference, OOPS, and host OS crash) or possibly
  have unspecified other impact by omitting vCPU initialization before a
  KVM_GET_REG_LIST ioctl call. (bsc#994758)
• CVE-2016-2069: Race condition in arch/x86/mm/tlb.c in the Linux kernel
  allowed local users to gain privileges by triggering access to a paging
  structure by a different CPU (bnc#963767).
• CVE-2016-7042: The proc_keys_show function in security/keys/proc.c in
  the Linux kernel used an incorrect buffer size for certain timeout data,
  which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (stack memory
  corruption and panic) by reading the /proc/keys file (bnc#1004517).
• CVE-2016-7097: The filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel
  preserved the setgid bit during a setxattr call, which allowed local
  users to gain group privileges by leveraging the existence of a setgid
  program with restrictions on execute permissions (bnc#995968).
• CVE-2015-8956: The rfcomm_sock_bind function in
  net/bluetooth/rfcomm/sock.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to
  obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
  dereference) via vectors involving a bind system call on a Bluetooth
  RFCOMM socket (bnc#1003925).
• CVE-2016-8658: Stack-based buffer overflow in the
  brcmf_cfg80211_start_ap function in
  drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/cfg80211.c in the Linux
  kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (system crash)
  or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long SSID Information
  Element in a command to a Netlink socket (bnc#1004462).
• CVE-2016-7425: The arcmsr_iop_message_xfer function in
  drivers/scsi/arcmsr/arcmsr_hba.c in the Linux kernel did not restrict a
  certain length field, which allowed local users to gain privileges or
  cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) via an
  ARCMSR_MESSAGE_WRITE_WQBUFFER control code (bnc#999932).
• CVE-2016-6327: drivers/infiniband/ulp/srpt/ib_srpt.c in the Linux kernel
  allowed local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
  dereference and system crash) by using an ABORT_TASK command to abort a
  device write operation (bnc#994748).
• CVE-2016-6828: The tcp_check_send_head function in include/net/tcp.h in
  the Linux kernel did not properly maintain certain SACK state after a
  failed data copy, which allowed local users to cause a denial of service
  (tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue use-after-free and system crash) via a
  crafted SACK option (bnc#994296).
• CVE-2016-5696: net/ipv4/tcp_input.c in the Linux kernel did not properly
  determine the rate of challenge ACK segments, which made it easier for
  remote attackers to hijack TCP sessions via a blind in-window attack
  (bnc#989152).
• CVE-2016-6130: Race condition in the sclp_ctl_ioctl_sccb function in
  drivers/s390/char/sclp_ctl.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to
  obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by changing a certain
  length value, aka a "double fetch" vulnerability (bnc#987542).
• CVE-2016-6480: Race condition in the ioctl_send_fib function in
  drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users
  to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds access or system crash) by
  changing a certain size value, aka a "double fetch" vulnerability
  (bnc#991608).
