kernel update for SLE11 SP1 (important)

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 1 kernel was
updated to 2.6.32.46 and fixes various bugs and security
issues.

Following security issues were fixed: CVE-2011-3191: A
signedness issue in CIFS could possibly have lead to to
memory corruption, if a malicious server could send crafted
replies to the host.

CVE-2011-3353: In the fuse filesystem,
FUSE_NOTIFY_INVAL_ENTRY did not check the length of the
write so the message processing could overrun and result in
a BUG_ON() in fuse_copy_fill(). This flaw could be used by
local users able to mount FUSE filesystems to crash the
system.

CVE-2011-2928: The befs_follow_link function in
fs/befs/linuxvfs.c in the Linux kernel did not validate the
length attribute of long symlinks, which allowed local
users to cause a denial of service (incorrect pointer
dereference and OOPS) by accessing a long symlink on a
malformed Be filesystem.
