This update for the Linux Kernel 3.12.60-52_57 fixes several issues.

The following security bugs were fixed:

  • CVE-2017-7308: The packet_set_ring function in net/packet/af_packet.c in
    the Linux kernel did not properly validate certain block-size data,
    which allowed local users to cause a denial of service (overflow) or
    possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted system calls
    (bsc#1030575, bsc#1031660).
