This updated openSUSE 11.3 kernel fixes the following security bugs :

CVE-2010-3310: local users could corrupt kernel heap memory via ROSE sockets.

CVE-2010-2962: local users could write to any kernel memory location via the i915 GEM ioctl interface.

Additionally the update restores the compat_alloc_userspace() inline function and includes several other bug fixes.

Description of changes:

* Improved fix for CVE-2010-2962.

The original upstream fix for CVE-2010-2962 had an overflow bug in its bounds checking.


* CVE-2012-0056: Privilege escalation in /proc/[pid]/mem writing.

It was found that permissions were not checked properly in the Linux kernel when handling the /proc/[pid]/mem writing functionality.  A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to escalate their privileges.
