An update that solves 11 vulnerabilities and has 64 fixes
is now available.
Description:
The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 3 kernel has been updated to fix
various bugs and security issues.
The following security bugs have been fixed:
*
CVE-2014-1739: The media_device_enum_entities function in
drivers/media/media-device.c in the Linux kernel before 3.14.6 does not
initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to
obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by leveraging
/dev/media0 read access for a MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES ioctl call
(bnc#882804).
*
CVE-2014-4171: mm/shmem.c in the Linux kernel through 3.15.1 does
not properly implement the interaction between range notification and hole
punching, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (i_mutex
hold) by using the mmap system call to access a hole, as demonstrated by
interfering with intended shmem activity by blocking completion of (1) an
MADV_REMOVE madvise call or (2) an FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE fallocate call
(bnc#883518).
*
CVE-2014-4508: arch/x86/kernel/entry_32.S in the Linux kernel
through 3.15.1 on 32-bit x86 platforms, when syscall auditing is enabled
and the sep CPU feature flag is set, allows local users to cause a denial
of service (OOPS and system crash) via an invalid syscall number, as
demonstrated by number 1000 (bnc#883724).
*
CVE-2014-4667: The sctp_association_free function in
net/sctp/associola.c in the Linux kernel before 3.15.2 does not properly
manage a certain backlog value, which allows remote attackers to cause a
denial of service (socket outage) via a crafted SCTP packet (bnc#885422).
*
CVE-2014-4943: The PPPoL2TP feature in net/l2tp/l2tp_ppp.c in the
Linux kernel through 3.15.6 allows local users to gain privileges by
leveraging data-structure differences between an l2tp socket and an inet
socket (bnc#887082).
*
CVE-2014-5077: The sctp_assoc_update function in
net/sctp/associola.c in the Linux kernel through 3.15.8, when SCTP
authentication is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) by starting to establish an
association between two endpoints immediately after an exchange of INIT
and INIT ACK chunks to establish an earlier association between these
endpoints in the opposite direction (bnc#889173).
*
CVE-2014-5471: Stack consumption vulnerability in the
parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux
kernel through 3.16.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service
(uncontrolled recursion, and system crash or reboot) via a crafted iso9660
image with a CL entry referring to a directory entry that has a CL entry.
(bnc#892490)
*
CVE-2014-5472: The parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in
fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux kernel through 3.16.1 allows local users to
cause a denial of service (unkillable mount process) via a crafted iso9660
image with a self-referential CL entry. (bnc#892490)
*
CVE-2014-2706: Race condition in the mac80211 subsystem in the Linux
kernel before 3.13.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(system crash) via network traffic that improperly interacts with the
WLAN_STA_PS_STA state (aka power-save mode), related to sta_info.c and
tx.c. (bnc#871797)
*
CVE-2014-4027: The rd_build_device_space function in
drivers/target/target_core_rd.c in the Linux kernel before 3.14 does not
properly initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to
obtain sensitive information from ramdisk_mcp memory by leveraging access
to a SCSI initiator. (bnc#882639)
*
CVE-2014-3153 The futex_requeue function in kernel/futex.c in the
Linux kernel through 3.14.5 does not ensure that calls have two different
futex addresses, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted
FUTEX_REQUEUE command that facilitates unsafe waiter modification.
(bnc#880892)
*

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 3 kernel was updated to fix
various bugs and security issues.
Following security bugs were fixed: CVE-2013-1979: The scm_set_cred
function in include/net/scm.h in the Linux kernel before 3.8.11 uses
incorrect uid and gid values during credentials passing, which allows
local users to gain privileges via a crafted application (bnc#816708).
CVE-2014-1739: The media_device_enum_entities function in
drivers/media/media-device.c in the Linux kernel before 3.14.6 does not
initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to obtain
sensitive information from kernel memory by leveraging /dev/media0 read
access for a MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES ioctl call (bnc#882804).
CVE-2014-4171: mm/shmem.c in the Linux kernel through 3.15.1 does not
properly implement the interaction between range notification and hole
punching, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (i_mutex
hold) by using the mmap system call to access a hole, as demonstrated by
interfering with intended shmem activity by blocking completion of (1) an
MADV_REMOVE madvise call or (2) an FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE fallocate call
(bnc#883518).
CVE-2014-4508: arch/x86/kernel/entry_32.S in the Linux kernel through
3.15.1 on 32-bit x86 platforms, when syscall auditing is enabled and the
sep CPU feature flag is set, allows local users to cause a denial of
service (OOPS and system crash) via an invalid syscall number, as
demonstrated by number 1000 (bnc#883724).
CVE-2014-4667: The sctp_association_free function in net/sctp/associola.c
in the Linux kernel before 3.15.2 does not properly manage a certain
backlog value, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(socket outage) via a crafted SCTP packet (bnc#885422).
CVE-2014-4943: The PPPoL2TP feature in net/l2tp/l2tp_ppp.c in the Linux
kernel through 3.15.6 allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging
data-structure differences between an l2tp socket and an inet socket
(bnc#887082).
CVE-2014-5077: The sctp_assoc_update function in net/sctp/associola.c in
the Linux kernel through 3.15.8, when SCTP authentication is enabled,
allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
dereference and OOPS) by starting to establish an association between two
endpoints immediately after an exchange of INIT and INIT ACK chunks to
establish an earlier association between these endpoints in the opposite
direction (bnc#889173).
CVE-2014-5471: Stack consumption vulnerability in the
parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux
kernel through 3.16.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service
(uncontrolled recursion, and system crash or reboot) via a crafted iso9660
image with a CL entry referring to a directory entry that has a CL entry.
(bnc#892490)
CVE-2014-5472: The parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in
fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux kernel through 3.16.1 allows local users to
cause a denial of service (unkillable mount process) via a crafted iso9660
image with a self-referential CL entry. (bnc#892490)
CVE-2014-2706: Race condition in the mac80211 subsystem in the Linux
kernel before 3.13.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(system crash) via network traffic that improperly interacts with the
WLAN_STA_PS_STA state (aka power-save mode), related to sta_info.c and
tx.c. (bnc#871797)
CVE-2014-4027: The rd_build_device_space function in
drivers/target/target_core_rd.c in the Linux kernel before 3.14 does not
properly initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to
obtain sensitive information from ramdisk_mcp memory by leveraging access
to a SCSI initiator. (bnc#882639)

______________________________________________________________________________
An update that solves 13 vulnerabilities and has 75 fixes
is now available. It includes two new package versions.
Description:
The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 3 kernel has been updated to fix
various bugs and security issues.
The following security bugs have been fixed:
*
CVE-2014-1739: The media_device_enum_entities function in
drivers/media/media-device.c in the Linux kernel before 3.14.6 does not
initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to
obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by leveraging
/dev/media0 read access for a MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES ioctl call
(bnc#882804).
*
CVE-2014-4171: mm/shmem.c in the Linux kernel through 3.15.1 does
not properly implement the interaction between range notification and hole
punching, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (i_mutex
hold) by using the mmap system call to access a hole, as demonstrated by
interfering with intended shmem activity by blocking completion of (1) an
MADV_REMOVE madvise call or (2) an FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE fallocate call
(bnc#883518).
*
CVE-2014-4508: arch/x86/kernel/entry_32.S in the Linux kernel
through 3.15.1 on 32-bit x86 platforms, when syscall auditing is enabled
and the sep CPU feature flag is set, allows local users to cause a denial
of service (OOPS and system crash) via an invalid syscall number, as
demonstrated by number 1000 (bnc#883724).
*
CVE-2014-4667: The sctp_association_free function in
net/sctp/associola.c in the Linux kernel before 3.15.2 does not properly
manage a certain backlog value, which allows remote attackers to cause a
denial of service (socket outage) via a crafted SCTP packet (bnc#885422).
*
CVE-2014-4943: The PPPoL2TP feature in net/l2tp/l2tp_ppp.c in the
Linux kernel through 3.15.6 allows local users to gain privileges by
leveraging data-structure differences between an l2tp socket and an inet
socket (bnc#887082).
*
CVE-2014-5077: The sctp_assoc_update function in
net/sctp/associola.c in the Linux kernel through 3.15.8, when SCTP
authentication is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) by starting to establish an
association between two endpoints immediately after an exchange of INIT
and INIT ACK chunks to establish an earlier association between these
endpoints in the opposite direction (bnc#889173).
*
CVE-2014-5471: Stack consumption vulnerability in the
parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux
kernel through 3.16.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service
(uncontrolled recursion, and system crash or reboot) via a crafted iso9660
image with a CL entry referring to a directory entry that has a CL entry.
(bnc#892490)
*
CVE-2014-5472: The parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in
fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux kernel through 3.16.1 allows local users to
cause a denial of service (unkillable mount process) via a crafted iso9660
image with a self-referential CL entry. (bnc#892490)
*
CVE-2014-2706: Race condition in the mac80211 subsystem in the Linux
kernel before 3.13.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(system crash) via network traffic that improperly interacts with the
WLAN_STA_PS_STA state (aka power-save mode), related to sta_info.c and
tx.c. (bnc#871797)
*
CVE-2014-4027: The rd_build_device_space function in
drivers/target/target_core_rd.c in the Linux kernel before 3.14 does not
properly initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to
obtain sensitive information from ramdisk_mcp memory by leveraging access
to a SCSI initiator. (bnc#882639)
*
CVE-2014-3153 The futex_requeue function in kernel/futex.c in the
Linux kernel through 3.14.5 does not ensure that calls have two different
futex addresses, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted
FUTEX_REQUEUE command that facilitates unsafe waiter modification.
(bnc#880892)
*
CVE-2014-6410: Avoid infinite loop when processing indirect ICBs
(bnc#896689)

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 3 RealTime Extension kernel was
updated to fix various bugs and security issues.
Following security bugs were fixed: CVE-2013-1979: The scm_set_cred
function in include/net/scm.h in the Linux kernel before 3.8.11 uses
incorrect uid and gid values during credentials passing, which allows
local users to gain privileges via a crafted application (bnc#816708).
CVE-2014-1739: The media_device_enum_entities function in
drivers/media/media-device.c in the Linux kernel before 3.14.6 does not
initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to obtain
sensitive information from kernel memory by leveraging /dev/media0 read
access for a MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES ioctl call (bnc#882804).
CVE-2014-4171: mm/shmem.c in the Linux kernel through 3.15.1 does not
properly implement the interaction between range notification and hole
punching, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (i_mutex
hold) by using the mmap system call to access a hole, as demonstrated by
interfering with intended shmem activity by blocking completion of (1) an
MADV_REMOVE madvise call or (2) an FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE fallocate call
(bnc#883518).
CVE-2014-4508: arch/x86/kernel/entry_32.S in the Linux kernel through
3.15.1 on 32-bit x86 platforms, when syscall auditing is enabled and the
sep CPU feature flag is set, allows local users to cause a denial of
service (OOPS and system crash) via an invalid syscall number, as
demonstrated by number 1000 (bnc#883724).
CVE-2014-4667: The sctp_association_free function in net/sctp/associola.c
in the Linux kernel before 3.15.2 does not properly manage a certain
backlog value, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(socket outage) via a crafted SCTP packet (bnc#885422).
CVE-2014-4943: The PPPoL2TP feature in net/l2tp/l2tp_ppp.c in the Linux
kernel through 3.15.6 allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging
data-structure differences between an l2tp socket and an inet socket
(bnc#887082).
CVE-2014-5077: The sctp_assoc_update function in net/sctp/associola.c in
the Linux kernel through 3.15.8, when SCTP authentication is enabled,
allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
dereference and OOPS) by starting to establish an association between two
endpoints immediately after an exchange of INIT and INIT ACK chunks to
establish an earlier association between these endpoints in the opposite
direction (bnc#889173).
CVE-2014-5471: Stack consumption vulnerability in the
parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux
kernel through 3.16.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service
(uncontrolled recursion, and system crash or reboot) via a crafted iso9660
image with a CL entry referring to a directory entry that has a CL entry.
(bnc#892490)
CVE-2014-5472: The parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in
fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux kernel through 3.16.1 allows local users to
cause a denial of service (unkillable mount process) via a crafted iso9660
image with a self-referential CL entry. (bnc#892490)
CVE-2014-2706: Race condition in the mac80211 subsystem in the Linux
kernel before 3.13.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(system crash) via network traffic that improperly interacts with the
WLAN_STA_PS_STA state (aka power-save mode), related to sta_info.c and
tx.c. (bnc#871797)
CVE-2014-4027: The rd_build_device_space function in
drivers/target/target_core_rd.c in the Linux kernel before 3.14 does not
properly initialize a certain data structure, which allows local users to
obtain sensitive information from ramdisk_mcp memory by leveraging access
to a SCSI initiator. (bnc#882639)
CVE-2014-3153 The futex_requeue function in kernel/futex.c in the Linux
kernel through 3.14.5 does not ensure that calls have two different futex
addresses, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted
FUTEX_REQUEUE command that facilitates unsafe waiter modification.
