This update for the Linux Kernel 3.12.69-60_64_29 fixes several issues.
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).
The following non-security bug was fixed:
- Fix for a "Data miscompare on a read" which was observed during the
rebuilding of degraded MDRAID VDs. (bsc#1025254)
