The following security issues were fixed:

  • CVE-2018-1000199: A bug in x86 debug register handling of ptrace() could
    lead to memory corruption, possibly a denial of service or privilege
    escalation (bsc#1090036).
  • CVE-2017-0861: Use-after-free vulnerability in the snd_pcm_info function
    in the ALSA subsystem in the Linux kernel allowed attackers to gain
