The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 GA kernel was updated to fix one security
issue.

The following security bug was fixed:

  • CVE-2016-1583: Prevent the usage of mmap when the lower file system does
    not allow it. This could have lead to local privilege escalation when
    ecryptfs-utils was installed and /sbin/mount.ecryptfs_private was setuid
    (bsc#983143).
