The SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP3 kernel was updated to 4.4.136 to receive various security and bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed :

  - CVE-2018-5848: In the function wmi_set_ie(), the length     validation code did not handle unsigned integer overflow     properly. As a result, a large value of the 'ie_len'     argument could have caused a buffer overflow     (bnc#1097356).

  - CVE-2017-18249: The add_free_nid function did not     properly track an allocated nid, which allowed local     users to cause a denial of service (race condition) or     possibly have unspecified other impact via concurrent     threads (bnc#1087036).

  - CVE-2018-3665: Prevent disclosure of FPU registers     (including XMM and AVX registers) between processes.
    These registers might contain encryption keys when doing     SSE accelerated AES enc/decryption (bsc#1087086).

  - CVE-2017-18241: Prevent a NULL pointer dereference by     using a noflush_merge option that triggers a NULL value     for a flush_cmd_control data structure (bnc#1086400).

  - CVE-2017-17741: The KVM implementation in the Linux     kernel allowed attackers to obtain potentially sensitive     information from kernel memory, aka a write_mmio     stack-based out-of-bounds read (bnc#1073311).

  - CVE-2018-12233: In the ea_get function in     fs/jfs/xattr.c, a memory corruption bug in JFS can be     triggered by calling setxattr twice with two different     extended attribute names on the same file. This     vulnerability can be triggered by an unprivileged user     with the ability to create files and execute programs. A     kmalloc call is incorrect, leading to slab-out-of-bounds     in jfs_xattr (bnc#1097234).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.

It was discovered that a race condition leading to a use-after-free vulnerability existed in the ALSA PCM subsystem of the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-0861)

It was discovered that the KVM implementation in the Linux kernel allowed passthrough of the diagnostic I/O port 0x80. An attacker in a guest VM could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) in the host OS. (CVE-2017-1000407)

It was discovered that a use-after-free vulnerability existed in the network namespaces implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-15129)

Andrey Konovalov discovered that the usbtest device driver in the Linux kernel did not properly validate endpoint metadata. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-16532)

Andrey Konovalov discovered that the SoundGraph iMON USB driver in the Linux kernel did not properly validate device metadata. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-16537)

Andrey Konovalov discovered that the IMS Passenger Control Unit USB driver in the Linux kernel did not properly validate device descriptors. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-16645)

Andrey Konovalov discovered that the DiBcom DiB0700 USB DVB driver in the Linux kernel did not properly handle detach events. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-16646)

Andrey Konovalov discovered that the ASIX Ethernet USB driver in the Linux kernel did not properly handle suspend and resume events. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-16647)

Andrey Konovalov discovered that the CDC USB Ethernet driver did not properly validate device descriptors. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).
(CVE-2017-16649)

Andrey Konovalov discovered that the QMI WWAN USB driver did not properly validate device descriptors. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).
(CVE-2017-16650)

It was discovered that the HugeTLB component of the Linux kernel did not properly handle holes in hugetlb ranges. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information (kernel memory).
(CVE-2017-16994)

It was discovered that the netfilter component of the Linux did not properly restrict access to the connection tracking helpers list. A local attacker could use this to bypass intended access restrictions.
(CVE-2017-17448)

It was discovered that the netfilter passive OS fingerprinting (xt_osf) module did not properly perform access control checks. A local attacker could improperly modify the system-wide OS fingerprint list. (CVE-2017-17450)

Dmitry Vyukov discovered that the KVM implementation in the Linux kernel contained an out-of-bounds read when handling memory-mapped I/O. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information.
(CVE-2017-17741)

It was discovered that the Salsa20 encryption algorithm implementations in the Linux kernel did not properly handle zero-length inputs. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-17805)

It was discovered that the HMAC implementation did not validate the state of the underlying cryptographic hash algorithm. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-17806)

It was discovered that the keyring implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly check permissions when a key request was performed on a tasks' default keyring. A local attacker could use this to add keys to unauthorized keyrings. (CVE-2017-17807)
