| Title: | Security update for the Linux Kernel (Important) |
| Description: |
The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 3 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.
Following security bugs were fixed: - CVE-2015-8104: Prevent guest to host DoS caused by infinite loop in microcode via #DB exception (bsc#954404). - CVE-2015-5307: Prevent guest to host DoS caused by infinite loop in microcode via #AC exception (bsc#953527). - CVE-2015-7990: RDS: Verify the underlying transport exists before creating a connection, preventing possible DoS (bsc#952384). - CVE-2015-5157: arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S in the Linux kernel on the x86_64 platform mishandled IRET faults in processing NMIs that occurred during userspace execution, which might have allowed local users to gain privileges by triggering an NMI (bsc#938706). - CVE-2015-7872: Possible crash when trying to garbage collect an uninstantiated keyring (bsc#951440). - CVE-2015-0272: Prevent remote DoS using IPv6 RA with bogus MTU by validating before applying it (bsc#944296). - CVE-2015-6937: The __rds_conn_create function in net/rds/connection.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by using a socket that was not properly bound (bsc#945825). - CVE-2015-6252: The vhost_dev_ioctl function in drivers/vhost/vhost.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a VHOST_SET_LOG_FD ioctl call that triggered permanent file-descriptor allocation (bsc#942367).
