This update for the Linux Kernel 3.12.59-60_45 fixes one issue.

The following security bug was fixed:

  • CVE-2017-5970: The ipv4_pktinfo_prepare function in
    net/ipv4/ip_sockglue.c in the Linux kernel allowed attackers to cause a
    denial of service (system crash) via (1) an application that made
    crafted system calls or possibly (2) IPv4 traffic with invalid IP
    options (bsc#1025013).
