Description:

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP4 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes.

The following security bugs were fixed:

  • CVE-2020-0543: Fixed a side channel attack against special registers which could have resulted in leaking of read values to cores other than the one which called it. This attack is known as Special Register Buffer Data Sampling (SRBDS) or "CrossTalk" (bsc#1154824).
  • CVE-2020-13143: Fixed an out-of-bounds read in gadget_dev_desc_UDC_store in drivers/usb/gadget/configfs.c (bsc#1171982).
  • CVE-2020-12769: Fixed an issue which could have allowed attackers to cause a panic via concurrent calls to dw_spi_irq and dw_spi_transfer_one (bsc#1171983).
  • CVE-2020-12768: Fixed a memory leak in svm_cpu_uninit in arch/x86/kvm/svm.c (bsc#1171736).
  • CVE-2020-12657: An a use-after-free in block/bfq-iosched.c (bsc#1171205).
  • CVE-2020-12656: Fixed an improper handling of certain domain_release calls leadingch could have led to a memory leak (bsc#1171219).
  • CVE-2020-12655: Fixed an issue which could have allowed attackers to trigger a sync of excessive duration via an XFS v5 image with crafted metadata (bsc#1171217).
  • CVE-2020-12654: Fixed an issue in he wifi driver which could have allowed a remote AP to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow (bsc#1171202).
  • CVE-2020-12653: Fixed an issue in the wifi driver which could have allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (bsc#1171195).
  • CVE-2020-12652: Fixed an issue which could have allowed local users to hold an incorrect lock during the ioctl operation and trigger a race condition (bsc#1171218).
  • CVE-2020-12464: Fixed a use-after-free due to a transfer without a reference (bsc#1170901).
  • CVE-2020-12114: Fixed a pivot_root race condition which could have allowed local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by corrupting a mountpoint reference counter (bsc#1171098).
  • CVE-2020-10757: Fixed an issue where remaping hugepage DAX to anon mmap could have caused user PTE access (bsc#1172317).
  • CVE-2020-10751: Fixed an improper implementation in SELinux LSM hook where it was assumed that an skb would only contain a single netlink message (bsc#1171189).
